Valuables Returned to Puri Jagannath Temple Treasury
Imagine the Jagannath Temple had some very special treasures, like jewelry and valuable things.
These treasures were kept safe in a special room called the 'Ratna Bhandar.'
They took the treasures out for some repairs to the room, like fixing things up.
During the repairs, the treasures were kept in another safe place inside the temple.
The repairs were done, and the treasures were carefully moved back to the 'Ratna Bhandar' on Tuesday.
It took about four hours, and they followed special rules to make sure everything was done correctly and safely.
Now, all the treasures are back where they belong.
Valuables and ornaments were shifted back to the Jagannath temple treasury.
The shifting occurred on Tuesday.
The process took approximately four hours.
Restrictions were imposed on devotees during the shifting.
The work adhered to the Sri Jagannath Temple Rules of 1960 and state guidelines.
