Interestingly, though the Tirumala Tirupati Devasthanams (TTD) took up the staircase work on Peruru Banda hillock as part of renovation of Vakula Matha temple way back in 2011, but still the work has not been completed. During the time, three Tirumala Tirupati Devasthanams Executive Officers changed. The formation of a staircase to the ancient temple on the hillock commenced recently.
The TTD sanctioned Rs 66 lakh for the granite stairway from down to the hillock to the top.

It needs to build a 500 to 600 metre long stairway to reach the temple situated at a height of 150 to 200 metres on the hillock. For several decades, quarrying at Peruru Banda which is a hillock spread over 1 km with quality granite, went unabated.
Following concerns expressed by local people, steps were taken to curb illegal quarrying. But by that time, about 70 per cent of the hillock had vanished. The remaining 30 per cent hillock now stands as a witness to the ‘illegal quarrying’which flourished once. The TTD is committed to renovating the ancient temple to make it a major pilgrim destination in Chittoor district.
