A.S. Narayana Deekshitulu served as one of the chief priests of the Tirumala temple for 50 years
The COVID-19 pandemic has turned its unforgiving eyes on India. I am pained to see the death toll mounting in the country of my parents’ birth, and I eagerly watch for news that a rapid mass vaccination campaign may stem the outbreak in India as it has done in other countries. COVID-19 does not discriminate. The disease has touched lives at all levels of Indian society, including those responsible for the operation and maintenance of various religious institutions. The famed Tirumala temple is no exception. This week, COVID-19 claimed the life of an iconic figure in the temple’s history, A.S. Narayana Deekshitulu, who served as one of its chief priests for 50 years.
