The Tirumala Tirupati Devasthanam (TTD) which manages the affairs at the holy temple of Lord Venkateswara in Andhra Pradesh has been gripped in an all-new controversy after it was revealed that a book published under its grant had three pages referring to Jesus Christ and Christianity, reports The News Minute.

As per the index of the book titled 'Bhakti Geethamrutha Lahari', the pages 182, 183 and 184 were supposed to talk about Sai Baba, while in reality, they talked about Jesus Christ. The book has been written by a retired Telugu lecturer from Rajahmundry, Monda Chinna Seetaramayya.
