Tirupati September 10:
As per the orders of IGP, OCTOPUS, a mock drill was conducted under the auspices of the Octopus team on duty in Tirumala to effectively deal with any undesirable situations that arise in important areas where there is a heavy crowd of devotees in Tirumala during Srivari Brahmotsavam.
In the event of a terrorist attack at the laddu counters on Tirumala Hill, which are always crowded with devotees, actions such as evacuating devotees to safe areas, responding immediately to the attack, conveying emergency information to the relevant departments, and providing medical assistance to the injured were practically carried out in the mock drill.
This mock drill was conducted under the supervision of Tirumala EO Sri M. Ravichandra, Additional EO Sri Venkaiah Chowdhury, Tirupati District SP Sri L. Subbaraidu, IPS., and TTD CV & SO Sri K. Muralikrishna IPS.
Octopus DSP Sri B. Krishna, RI Sri Sri Srinivasa Rao, TTD Vigilance VSO Sri Surendra, AVSO Sri Rajasekhar and other officers participated in the mock drill.
Similarly, traffic, local police, SPF, CCS, police station CIs, SIs, fire personnel, Ashwini Hospitals staff, and laddu counter staff participated in the mock drill and performed their assigned duties in a coordinated manner.
Through the mock drill, the officials examined aspects such as the speed of response of security forces in emergency situations, mutual coordination, protection measures for devotees, and linkage of medical and fire services.
The Tirupati District Police Department said that necessary security measures are being implemented in coordination with all departments to provide a safe environment for devotees during the Srivari Brahmotsavam

In the wake of the inauguration of the SV Museum in Tirumala by the Honourable Chief Minister of the AP, Sri N Chandrababu Naidu during Brahmotsavams next week, TTD EO Sri Muddada Ravichandra along with the Additional EO Sri Ch. Venkaiah Chowdary, Tirupati SP Sri Subbarayudu, CVSO Sri Muralikrishna inspected the arrangements at the museum on Thursday.

On this occasion, he inspected the galleries set up in the museum and made several suggestions to the officials concerned. 

The EO said that all arrangements should be made in such a way that the devotees can enjoy the artworks in the museum completely and provide feedback easily.

TTD In-Charge CE Sri Manoharam, Deputy EO Sri Somannarayana, VGO Sri Surendra and other officials participated in the program.

Puranic tradition holds that Sri Brahma-the Creator Himself conducted the first festival when Sri Venkateswara manifested on Seven Hills—hence the name “Brahmotsavam.”

In 966 CE, Pallava Queen Samavai Sri Perundevi gifted a one feet silver idol of Bhoga Srinivasa Murty, ornaments and land endowments for conducting festivals in Tirumala which is evident from the inscription available on the Northern wall of the first Prakaram.

It also says that Brahmotsavams were conducted in Purattasi and Margazhi months by the 10th century.

Expansion through the centuries and some interesting 

During the Chola and Yadavaraya periods, the number of Brahmotsavams grew.

Panguni (attributed to Vira Narasimha Yadavaraya, 1209–1263)

Chittirai (1254, under Vijaya Gandagopaladeva)

Aadi (1300–1330, under Yadavaraya feudatories)

By the Vijayanagara era, up to ten annual Brahmotsavams were recorded in inscriptions (1539–1616), reflecting a living, expanding tradition.
