The people go to #RathYatra to seek blessings of Lord Jagannath once in a year & for gaining a super divine feeling.
But it’s really so unfortunate that, Hon’ble Union minister Shri Dharmendra Pradhan played cheap politics on this happiest occasion.
What was the need of mentioning a govt scheme on his narrative about the rituals of Chariot Festival???
What was the need of taking the name of Shri Narendra Modi while talking about our rich Odia traditions & culture involved with Lord Jagannath?
It was clearly his stupidity to politicise each matter, and very particularly this car festival of Lord Jagannath which is firmly related to the emotions of Odia people & people across the world.
By saying so, he has hurt the emotions of Odia people and so with minimum courtesy, he must apologise for it.
But it’s another shameful act that, he is categorically denying to take any other’s certificate /suggestion when people are pointing fingers towards him!
Meanwhile, we request to the BJP of Odisha, to kindly take their stand with all humanity & respect to the Jagannath culture, without blatantly supporting the Union minister.
