Shree Jagannath Temple Reopens After 3 Days: Odisha
The iconic Shree Jagannath Temple in Odisha's Puri has been reopened for devotees after three days of closing, on December 3. Reportedly, the Temple administration had decided to close the 12th-century temple on December 31 to avoid big crowds of devotees around New Year considering the spread of COVID-19, as per PTI. However, the priests and servitors continually performed all rituals during the three days, said an official.
