Puri Jagannath Temple To Remain Open Till 11 PM Today & Tomorrow

Bhubaneswar: Jagannath Temple in Odisha’s Puri will remain out of bounds for devotees, on the auspicious occasion of Kartik Purnima, on Friday (November 19), to prevent huge congregations amid the COVID-19 pandemic.

The darshan timing, however, has been extended till 11 pm on Wednesday and Thursday in view of the heavy rush to the temple during ‘Panchuka’, the last five days of the holist Kartika month in the Hindu calendar.
