Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu has expressed his strong support for the Honourable Supreme Court's decision to establish a Special Investigation Team (SIT) to probe allegations of adulteration concerning the famed Tirupati laddu.

Naidu emphasized the importance of maintaining the integrity and purity of the sacred prasadam, which is highly revered by devotees visiting the Tirumala temple. The Supreme Court’s directive mandates the formation of the SIT, comprising officers from the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI), Andhra Pradesh Police, and the Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI).
