Puri: Snana Yatra will be conducted as per the rituals inside the temple premises at the Meghanad Pacheri with limited number of servitors, said Puri Gajapati Dibyasingha Deb after the Srimandir Managing Committee Meeting with the State government on Saturday.
“Puri Srimandir will remain out of bounds for devotees in view of the coronavirus situation. The State government will take decision on conduct of the Rath Yatra but it will not be possible to allow devotees to gather near Puri Badadanda in view of COVID19,” the Puri Gajapati said.
