Last year Madurai Meenakshi Temple had attempted the live streaming of Chithirai Festival but most of the devotees failed to view the festival online due to bandwidth problem. The website was down for the whole day. Hope the SrirangamRanganathaswamy Temple administration had a look into bandwidth issues.
