Shallu Jindal to witness the Debasnana Purnima rituals of Lord Jagannath, Lord Balabhadra, and Devi Subhadra at the Jagannath Temple in Jindal Nagar, Angul. Leading the devotees, the Prime Servitors of the temple conducted the Snana Purnima’s Vedic rituals with full devotion.

In line with the Puri Temple’s rituals, the auspicious day began early at 5 AM with the priests performing Dwara Phita, Mangal Aarati, Shrikarpoora Lagi, Mangalarpana Neeti, Puspanjali, Sarbanga, Punah Shrikarpoora Lagi by Adya Sebaka, and more. This was followed by the Dhadi Pahandi of Sri Chaturdha Murati from the main temple to the Snana Mandap, where the Pancha Upachara Puja of Mahaprabhu, Snana, and other rituals were performed under the guidance of the Chief Priest.

Joining the rituals Mr. Naveen Jindal said, ‘Feeling blessed to participate in the sacred DevSnan Purnima festival of Lord Jagannath at our steel plant in Angul, Odisha. This occasion reminds us of our rich cultural heritage and faith. May Lord Jagannath bless us all with health and happiness”.
