Bhubaneswar: The annual Rath Yatra festival of Lord Jagannath at Puri, is just around the corner. One of India’s most anticipated cultural and religious events draws great fervour and public participation. However, due to restrictions posed by the ongoing Covid pandemic devotees will not be able to physically participate in this year’s chariot pulling ceremony.
