Bhubaneswar: The Odisha government has acquired 75 per cent private land within 75-metre radius of Shri Jagannath Temple in 40 days for creation of the security zone.
Making this announcement here on Monday, Chief Minister Naveen termed this acquisition process as an “unprecedented success” in the country.
He extended his wishes and appreciated all those who sacrificed their properties, hotels, lodges and commercial establishments for the greater cause of the temple. He said the sacrifice made by the people has further enriched the Jagannath culture and the ethos associated with it.
“On the auspicious day of Janmashtami, I had earnestly requested you to sacrifice the land for the safety of the temple of Lord Jagannath who holds a unique place among the people of Odisha and their culture. I am extremely happy that you have kept my request. The entire Odia community will remember your selfless sacrifice for all times to come,” he said.
