Union Home Minister Amit Shah offered prayers at Lord Venkateswara temple here on Friday, said an official.

Accompanied by his wife Sonal Shah, the BJP leader reached the temple at around 8 am and spent half an hour there, participating in the rituals.

“The temple priests blessed Shah and also gifted him a diary, ayurvedic products, laddu (consecrated sweet) and other items,” the official told PTI.
