THIRUVANANTHAPURAM: The Travancore Devaswom Board is in a crisis with a fall of Rs 100 crore in Sabarimala temple revenue. Day to day activities would be stalled. However, the board expects to get more government help in the coming budget, he said.

The board appraised that after the end of the festive season, a fall of Rs 98 crore was seen in the revenue. In that case, there would be problems in board’s salary depending on revenue, pension, day to day activities of other temples and construction activities. The Devaswom Board is now more hopeful on the government.
