This temple is also treated as a socio-economic centre where certain needs of the villagers are planned to be met. Around one and a half year ago, every third Sunday of the month, unused items like utensils, clothing etc of some of the temple related people are collected and distributed to the local people. A few medicines are placed in the temple for emergency purposes. A library is opened and several books are donated by Dr P V Sesha Sai Aswamedhayaaji along with lot of furniture to the temple for the benefit of the villagers. Blood donors names along with contact information is displayed in the temple venue in order to meet the exigencies of any one. A few doctors have come forward to help the less fortunate in the society and the specialist doctors names are displayed in the notice board for ready reference by the needy. Medical camps are now being planned. Cow feeding centre is also functioning and those who are intereted to feed cows, the related items/cash is being collected and sent to the Cow Shelter centres in various parts of the country by the temple. Bird feed and birds resting place is planned and feed is given to the birds every now and then. Water shelter is also available and particularly during Summer season, water is being arranged to the needy. Due to paucity of funds, cool water could not be arranged. During Summer of 2007 only pot water is served to the needy. Marriage alliances and related persons names are displayed for quick reference. So also important priests names, important caterers names and Sannai persons names and other information is displayed on the notice boards for quick reference.
