It is Tirupati Balaji temple (not Thiruppathi Balaji Temple)

I may have a different take on this issue. I think this question was posted in the wake of Amitabh donating 51lakhs to this temple. This donation has become a hype as this has been done by a hugely popular celebrity. The amt which he donated was used for providing education to the poor and needy of that area.

I have also donated some amount to the temple which is being used for good purposes !

No doubt. But of course in some cases the money is put to good use of the public and in preservation of the temple and maintenance. But then there are also these holy people who pocket them and gain out of it. Can't be stopped I suppose...there are always wolves in disguise everywhere and a holy place cannot be an exception except that God is watching!!

No. In bank, we can get cheque book for this lok. In big temples, money is transferred for benefit in Parlok.
