Puri (Odisha), June 16 (ANI): The age-old tradition of constructing the chariots for Lord Jagannath, Lord Balabhadra, and Devi Subhadra is all set to continue this year as well, as the carpenters and artisans working on the holy chariots have started their work ahead of the world-famous ‘Rath Yatra’ in Puri of Odisha. With a unique ‘Rath Yatra’ where the Lord himself comes out to bless everyone, the people expressed their happiness to attend the ‘Yatra’.

The holy ‘Yatra’ is held at the Shri Kshetra Puri Dham in Puri. The ‘Yatra’ will be conducted on July 01 this year. While speaking to ANI, Chief Carpenter of Lord Jagannath’s chariot, Bijay Mohapatra, said, “The three chariots of Lord Jagannath, Balabhadra, and Subhadra are newly constructed every year with woods of specific trees.
