Bhubaneswar: The Banakalagi Niti or rituals of the principal deities will be held at the Jagannath Temple in Puri on Wednesday.
As per the decision at Puri Srimandir Managing Committee meeting held last week, the Dattamohapatra servitors will conduct the Banakalagi ritual of Lord Jagannath tomorrow.
The special ritual will be conducted after the end of the second Bhoga Mandap ritual, informed the Shree Jagannath Temple Administration (SJTA) today.
As per the Srimandir Record of Rights, the ritual should be held at least four times a month, but a reported dispute between the SJTA and the Dattamohapatra servitors has resulted in the disruption of the ritual.
