Shri Jagannath Rath Yatra is not merely a festival—it is a divine movement of grace and unity, where the Lord of the Universe steps down to walk among His devotees. In this sacred procession of Nandighosha, Taladhwaja, and Darpadalana, we witness the eternal rhythm of dharma, compassion, and cultural splendour that defines the soul of Odisha. As Deputy Chief Minister, and above all, as a humble son of this soil, I offer my prayers at His lotus feet—for peace, strength, and spiritual awakening for all.
