A record three lakh rush of devotees from all over India and abroad have
witnessed the most celestial "Garudaseva Procession" of Lord
Venkateswara on the fifth day of nine day annual Brahmotsvam festivals

Tens of millions of devotees all over the globe too had the opportunity
of viewing the sacred festival live on the Internet at

As part of the festival the over a millennium old utsav idol of Lord
Venkateswara, adorned with several highly valuable dazzling ornaments
including the ancient 5 foot high Makhara Kanti Haram, Chandra Haram and
Sri Lakshmi Maha Haram, mounted on the tastefully decorated Garuda
Vahavana was taken out in a very grand procession around shrine.



The devotionally charged Tirumala hills which was thickly blanketed with
the sea of devotees has resounded continuously with chantings of Jagat
Rakshaka - Govinda - Govinda by devotees when the procession was on.



Unprecedented security arrangements by various agencies were made for
the most sacred event of the mega festivals.
