This is a wonderful service offered in the crowded pilgrim centre like Tirumala. At a temple visited by more than fifty thousand people every day, stopping the regular queue lines twice a day for the sake of senior citizens and disabled is a wonderful gesture. If someone wants to know anything specific or any other information, you can call on Tirumala Tirupati Devasthanams (TTD)helpline at 0877 2277777.
