The Odisha Society of UK has voiced strong disapproval of ISKCON’s decision to hold the Snana Yatra and Rath Yatra on dates not aligned with traditional scriptures, raising concerns among devotees.
Ahead of the Rath Yatra on July 16, Law Minister Prithiviraj Harichandan reassures the public about unity among servitors while unveiling a comprehensive crowd-control plan for the festival.
The Shree Jagannath Temple Administration has raised objections to the Rath Yatra scheduled for May 23 in Ferozepur, claiming it contradicts traditional timings and guidelines.
A 31-year-old man has been rearrested in Puri just days after being released on bail for allegedly threatening to bomb the Govardhan Mutt and the upcoming Rath Yatra.
On the auspicious day of Akshaya Tritiya, renowned sand artist Sudarsan Pattnaik has showcased his talent with a magnificent sand sculpture of Lord Jagannath and his siblings on Puri Beach.
Preparations for the Rath Yatra 2026 are in full swing in Puri with the arrival of sacred woods for chariot construction. The wood will be used for the grand chariots dedicated to Lord Jagannath, Lord Balabhadra, and Devi Subhadra.
