Minister announces ₹40 lakh for Nellore Vinayaka temple reconstruction
Ponguru Narayana performs bhumi puja, fulfils an election promise made to his constituents ahead of the 2024 general elections
Minister Ponguru Narayana performed a 'bhumi puja' ceremony for the reconstruction of the Vinayaka temple in Nellore city’s 50th division on Sunday. The temple, once small and dilapidated, has gained popularity due to increased footfall, prompting its reconstruction. Ponguru Narayana fulfilled his promise made to constituents ahead of the 2024 general elections to rebuild the temple.
State Warehousing Corporation Director K. Srinivasulu had appealed to Narayana before the elections to undertake the reconstruction. After attending the religious event with his spouse, Narayana announced that the temple reconstruction would be completed with an outlay of ₹40 lakh at the earliest. Nellore TDP women’s wing president K. Revathi and former ZPTC member Vijetha Reddy also participated in the event.
