Puri: Lord Jagannath Rath Yatra begins in Puri #Gallery
Puri: The annual Rath Yatra of Lord Jagannath and his siblings began in Odisha's Puri on June 23, 2020. The annual festival is being celebrated after the Supreme Court's nod to organise it in a limited way without public attendance, in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic. The priests performed the "Mangala Aarti" early in the morning. Amid blowing of conches and beating of cymbals, the ceremonial procession of the deities known as "Pahandi" - carrying the deities on chariots out of the temple -- took place. The festival marks the annual journey of the three deities -- Lord Jagannath, his brother Balabhadra and sister Subhadra -- from the 12th century Jagannath temple to the Gundicha temple.
