Revanth Reddy demands national status, Central funds for Medaram JataraTelangana CM Revanth Reddy urged the Centre to declare Medaram’s Sammakka-Saralamma Jatara a national festival. He questioned why the union government allocates thousands of crores for the Kumbh Mela but fails to extend similar support to the Sammakka-Saralamma Jatara, which draws lakhs of devotees from India and abroad. He asked the officials to work round-the-clock and complete the redevelopment works within the next 100 days. Revanth Reddy announced that the government is ready to sanction necessary funds for temple re-development, with the participation of tribals, priests and locals. Earlier, the Chief Minister inspected the temple site, reviewed expansion plans with officials and sought feedback from priests and tribal representatives.
