The action has been taken against the 18 employees for following non-Hindu customs while working in Tirupathi Devasthanam. (What do the secularist say about including non-Hindus in the Temple Administrative Committee under the guise of secularism ? – Editor) While working in TTD they were following other religions. Now orders have been given for disciplinary action to be taken against them.
