Jagannadha Ratha Yatra at Jayapuram ends
The Rath Yatra of Lord Jagannadha Swamy at Jayapuram ended on Monday. The Yatra at Jayapuram has a special significance. Generally the Rath Yatra of Lord Jagannadha Swamy in any other parts of the world will be held for 9 days only but the yatra at Jayapuram will be held for 10 days. Jaatara (or local festival) will be held for 2 days instead of 1 day.
