Goddess Durga’s Height For Gosani Yatra In Puri Will Remain As Usual: Orissa High Court

Cuttack: The Orissa High Court has ruled that the height of the Goddess Durga for the Gosani Yatra in Puri will remain as usual as per the tradition.

The court has given the ruling after hearing a petition filed by the Satasahi Puja Committee. The Committee had told the court that as the Gosani Yatra is held as per the tradition of the Jagannath temple, the height of idol of the Goddess should remain as usual.

The court, however, made it clear that the local administration will take the decision regarding immersion of the idols of the Goddess of different puja mandaps in the pilgrim town and the district collector and SP will make separate arrangements for the immersion.

Besides, the court also directed the puja committees to conduct the rituals with strict adherence to COVID-19 guidelines.
