Bhubaneswar: People of Odisha are celebrating ‘Rasagola Dibasa’ or ‘Rasagola Day’ with much pomp and fanfare today to mark the origin of the syrupy dessert in the state and cherish its link to the rich Jagannath Culture as this day coincides with the Niladri Bije of Lord Jagannath and his siblings in Puri.
Odisha Chief Minister Naveen Patnaik took to his social media handle to remind us of the importance of Niladri Bije.
ନବଦିନାତ୍ମକ ଲୀଳା ସାରି ଚତୁର୍ଦ୍ଧାମୂର୍ତ୍ତି ନୀଳାଦ୍ରୀବିଜେ କରିବେ। ମହାପ୍ରଭୁ ରସଗୋଲା ଦେଇ ମା' ଲକ୍ଷ୍ମୀଙ୍କ ମାନଭଞ୍ଜନ କରି ଭାଇଭଉଣୀଙ୍କ ସହ ରତ୍ନବେଦୀକୁ ଯିବେ। ମହାପ୍ରଭୁଙ୍କ ଏହି ମାନବୀୟ ଲୀଳା ହିଁ ଜଗନ୍ନାଥ ସଂସ୍କୃତିର ଅନନ୍ୟ ପରିଚୟ। ଏହା ହିଁ ଆମ ସଂସ୍କୃତିର ସ୍ଵତନ୍ତ୍ରତା। ଜୟ ଜଗନ୍ନାଥ। 🙏#RasagolaDibasa pic.twitter.com/e2TUy7MCRJ
