TDP spokesperson Anam Venkata Ramana Reddy claimed at a press conference that a Gujarat-based livestock laboratory has confirmed adulteration in the ghee samples that were provided by the Tirumala Tirupati Devasthanams (TTD), which manages the famous Sri Venkateswara Swamy temple.

Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu's claim that animal fat was used in Tirupati laddus during the previous government has triggered a massive political row, with the YSRCP accusing Naidu of indulging in 'heinous allegations' for political gains and the Telugu Desam Party circulating a lab report to back its claim.

Congress calls for full-fledged enquiry into alleged desecration of Tirupati laddu, while TDP accuses Naidu of political motives.

The TDP in Andhra Pradesh claimed that a Gujarat-based livestock laboratory has confirmed the presence of animal fat and fish oil in the ghee used for the preparation of the Tirupati laddu.
