View from the Madley subway end just as the temple was opened but there is a screen in front of the Main diety

There is a vedapatashala and today morning we saw the students performing various jobs in preparation of abhisekam which we were blessed to witness .
The ambal is very serene and is just like the kamakshi at Kanchi

    1. On the Usman road right next to T.Nagar bus terminus is Madley road leading to the subway. At the end of this road is the main gate of this vedapatashala.
      It can also be reached from Aeya Gounder road side and also from thepostal colony via kK nagar
