Thanks to Sri Sivaramakrishnan Balakrishnamoorthy for sharing this update recently. Honestly, hundreds of temples for are in this state only. While posting here in this forum is good to create some awareness, the real action would be some local people taking the lead on this and see what we can do to fix this. We don’t know if this is a HR&CE temple – if so, things would be even more messy. If not, it is fairly straightforward. Before this temple is converted as a evening-hour-bar permanently, I hope Periyava sends someone local to this place to take the lead and make the change.
The following Maalaimalar link talks about sthalapuranam of this temple – apparently, this article is 3 years old and things have gone worse over a period of time:
