Devotees visiting the temple have been asked to follow Covid-19 guidelines like wearing masks and social distancing.
All guest houses, cottages and dormitories will be opened for devotees to stay overnight. However, the devotees will not be allowed to stay in front of the temple, near Rangamandira and other places.
However, the restrictions on holding teppotsavam and next jathra celebrations still continued.
