The divine Jagannath Rath Yatra 2025 has officially begun! A sea of millions gathers in Odisha’s holy city of Puri as Lord Jagannath, Lord Balabhadra, and Maa Subhadra embark on their sacred 3-km journey to the Gundicha Temple on majestic chariots — Nandighosh, Taladhwaja, and Darpadalan. Known as Shree Gundicha Yatra, this annual celebration of faith, unity, and tradition draws devotees from across the globe. To ensure a safe and smooth yatra, a five-tier security setup has been deployed, including 200 platoons of police, BSF, and CRPF units. The spiritual fervour is unmatched as chants of “Jai Jagannath” echo across the city.
