Puri: After Anasara quarantine, Lord Jagannath, Lord Balabhadra and Devi Subhadra are all set to give darshan to countless devotees on the occasion of Nabajouban Darshan, a key ritual ahead of Rath Yatra, on June 19.
On the day, which is also called Netra Utshab, Paramanik Darshan of the deities will be held between 8 am and 9 am while general public darshan will be allowed from 9 am to 11 am. “A total of 7000 tickets priced at Rs 100 each will be sold for the Paramanik Darshan,” Shree Jagannath Temple Administration (SJTA) Chief Administrator Ranjan Kumar Das told a presser on Thursday.
The Paramanik Darshan ticket holders will be allowed to enter the temple through Dakshina Swara (South Gate).
Notably, the deities have fully recovered from the fever which they caught after the grand bath on Snana Purnima on June 4. Following Nabajourban Darshan, they will embark on their annual sojourn on June 20.

He further said that 70 platoons of the police force will be deployed for the smooth conduct of Nabajauban Darshan of the deities.
