Bhubaneswar: Chief Secretary Suresh Chandra Mahapatra Saturday reviewed the progress of various ongoing developmental projects in Gajapati district associated with mythological characters from epic Mahabharat
Mohapatra first visited Kunti temple via Tumba-Puria Sahi-Burukhat to survey the progress of project sites for development of eco-tourism. The temple projects are believed to have mythological connection with Mahabharata. As per legends, Pandavas had visited Mahendragiri hills of Gajapati district along with Kunti.
