With the conclusion of Bahuda Jatra, all preparations are being put in place for the ‘Sunabesha’ ritual of the deities tomorrow.
This year, Ratha Jatra was also held without any devotees as the Supreme Court issued strict guidelines for Ratha Jatra to contain the spread of Covid-19 infections.
No more than 500 people including servitors and police personnel were allowed to pull the chariots this year.
