The historic Ramappa temple at Palampet in Mulugu district, which was inscribed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site last year, will be developed under the PRASAD scheme as part of a project to develop a tribal circuit in Mulugu district, said Union Minister for Tourism, Culture and North East States Development G. Kishan Reddy.
He was speaking to reporters after worshipping tribal deities at the Sammakka Saralamma jathara in Medaram in Mulugu district on Friday. He offered jaggery (Bangaram in local parlance) equal to his weight to the tribal goddesses at the altar.
Union Minister of State for Tribal Affairs Renuka Singh and BJP MLA from Huzurabad Eatala Rajender also paid their obeisance to the tribal goddesses on the third day of the biennial tribal fair.
