The pilgrim season is going on full swing. Makarajyoti is due on January 15th, 2012. The Aravana payasam is the prasad. A 250 ml pack comes at Rs 60. Appam is also sold widely as prasad. Woman in the age group of 10 to 50 is not permitted in Sabarimala.
Thiruabharanam Yatra (3.36 kg gold ornament)
As on 26.12.11, the hill temple received offerings worth Rs. 118 Crore.
The number of pilgrims has decreased compared to last year due to Mullaperiyar dam inter state water sharing issue with Tamil Nadu. A number of Malayalis were attacked in Tamil Nadu. Rare incident of attack of Tamilians were reported. Still Kerala is safe for Tamils to visit and to do business.
KSRTC is cancelling Nilackal - Pamba buses due to shortage of pilgrims (Tamils).
