Puri: A pal of gloom descended on the family of senior servitor of Jagannath Temple Premananda Das Mahapatra on Tuesday as his wife passed away within 48 hours of the former’s death.

Following the servitor’s death, his wife Binodini Das Mahapatra, who was under treatment for COVID-19, hardly took any food for the last two days and breathed her last on Tuesday morning.
