Earlier this week, Andhra Pradesh chief minister N Chandrababu Naidu has reportedly alleged that animal fat was used to prepare the Tirupati laddoo at the Tirumala Venkateswara Temple, during the YSRCP regime. The statement was made while he was speaking at an NDA legislature party meeting in Amravati.
While the Opposition has denied the allegation, there is a lot to know about the laddu, which has a rich history since many decades at the Hindu temple, which is known to be among the richest in the world.
