Bhubaneswar: It’s Dussehra and Bhubaneswar is ready to witness the burning large-scale effigies of Ravana accompanied by fireworks.
While special arrangements have been made by local administrations for smooth darshan of the Goddess at various pandals, permission has been granted to six puja committees– Jharpada, Baramunda, Naharkanta, Koradakanta, Chhatabara and Tamando – for conducting ‘Ravan Podi‘ Ustav in the city on Tuesday, marking an end to the four-day Durga Puja festivities.
Adequate firefighting arrangements has been done to prevent any mishap or untoward incident during the event, Deputy fire officer Abani Swain said.
