50,000 pull giant Nandighosh chariot in Keonjhar
The famous Rath Yatra of Keonjhar passed off peacefully as the single giant chariot Nandighosh carrying Lord Jagannath, Lord Balabhadra and Lord Subhadra arrived at their aunt’s house, Mausi Maa Temple at Bada Danda in Old Town area. Around 50,000 devotees from nearby areas including the neighbouring State of Jharkhand pulled the giant chariot from the famous Sri Baldev Jew Temple here on Tuesday afternoon after the traditional ‘chhera pahanra’ ritual was performed by chief royal priest Harihar Mishra of the present king Ananta Narayan Bhanja Deo.
