Basar: Prajarajyam party president Chiranjeevi’s wife Surekha performed special pujas at the famed Saraswati temple at Basar on the occasion of Moolanakshatram day on Monday evening.
She came to the temple at 6 pm and spent half an hour in the shrine. Sources said with her husband setting out on a statewide tour on Vijayadashami day, she prayed for the success of his tour.
About 60,000 devotees thronged the temple town as the authorities claimed that the temple was richer by Rs 10 lakh only on ‘Akshara abhyasam’ ritual. There was a huge demand for Rs 500 special Akshara Abhyasam package, an official said.
Sources said devotees from various parts of AP and adjacent Maharashtra and Karnataka also visited the temple town.
