However, looking at the rush, the Tirumala Tirupati Devasthanams (TTD) decided to allow pilgrims directly into the compartments of Tirumala for darshan. The situation is normal now," TTD PRO Ravi Kumar said After a stampede-like situation, TTD has cancelled VIP or suspended darshans till coming Sunday.
