He pointed out that low-flying aircraft, helicopters, and other aerial activities over Tirumala disturb the sacred atmosphere surrounding the Sri Venkateswara Temple. The trust argued that declaring Tirumala a No-Fly Zone is a crucial step toward preserving the sacred shrine&#8217;s sanctity and cultural and spiritual heritage. The TTD chairman urged the Union Minister to take immediate action on the matter. <\/p>\n<p><style><![CDATA[\n    \t    #sr_widget.onDemand p, #stock_pro.onDemand p{font-size: 14px;line-height: 1.28;}\n    \t    .onDemand .live_stock{left:17px;padding:1px 3px 1px 5px;font-size:12px;font-weight:600;line-height:18px;top:9px}\n    \t    #sr_widget.onDemand .sr_desc{margin:0 auto 0;}\n    \t    #sr_widget.onDemand .sr_desc{color: #024d99;margin-top:10px;}\n    \t    #sr_widget.onDemand .crypto .live_stock .lb-icon{8px 6px 5px 3px !important}\n    \t    #sr_widget.crypto.onDemand a.text{border-bottom:1px solid #ccc;padding-bottom:5px;display:block;width:100%}\n    \t    #sr_widget.onDemand .sr_desc .text p, #stock_pro.onDemand .sr_desc .text p{font-size:12px;font-weight:400;}\n    \t]]><\/style>\n<p><!--\/article_liveblog.cms?msid=105115637&pos=botpotime:2--><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/economictimes.indiatimes.com\/news\/india\/tirupati-temple-trust-seeks-no-fly-zone-over-tirumala-aviation-minister-responds\/articleshow\/118664610.cms\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hyderabad: After the Tirupati temple administration requested the Civil Aviation Ministry to declare Tirumala a &#8216;No-Fly&#8217; zone, Union minister Ram Mohan Naidu Kinjarapu said on Sunday that authorities are in discussions with air traffic controllers to explore alternate flight routes. &#8220;We are trying to talk with the Navigation and Air Traffic Control so that flights [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":250299,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"tdm_status":"","tdm_grid_status":"","fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/img.etimg.com\/photo\/msid-118664610,imgsize-14254.cms","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[602],"tags":[13654,91708,193869,193873,2124,135736,5638,193870,5113,193874,3183,15976,193867,7680,193871,193866,17319,193868,193872,2752],"amp_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/news.talkwithrattan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/250298"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/news.talkwithrattan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/news.talkwithrattan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news.talkwithrattan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news.talkwithrattan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=250298"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/news.talkwithrattan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/250298\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":250300,"href":"https:\/\/news.talkwithrattan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/250298\/revisions\/250300"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news.talkwithrattan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/250299"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/news.talkwithrattan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=250298"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news.talkwithrattan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=250298"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news.talkwithrattan.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=250298"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
