The Jammu and Kashmir administration on Thursday approved a proposal to allot nearly 25 hectares of land on lease basis for a period of 40 years to the Tirumala Tirupathi Devasthanams (TTD) to build a temple and its allied infrastructures in the union territory.
The proposal was approved by the Administrative Council (AC), which met under the chairmanship of Lieutenant Governor Manoj Sinha earlier in the day. An official spokesperson said the leased nearly 25 hectares of land will also have a pilgrim amenities complex, a ''vedapatasala'', a spiritual/meditation centre, an office, residential quarters and a parking area.
In future, it will also have medical and educational facilities, he said.
