Odisha Government Can Decide On Allowing Rath Yatra This Year: Top Court
A call on Puri's famous rath yatra can be taken by the Odisha government, the Supreme Court said today after petitions asking it to recall its earlier order banning the hugely popular festival. The state will assess the situation and if need be, take steps to restrict festivities, the court said. The seven-day festival is slated to begin tomorrow.
