Ratna Bhandar reopening date to be decided on July 9
The high-level committee, set up by Odisha government to supervise the Shree Jagannath Temple Managing Committee in carrying out inventorisation of valuables including jewellery in the ‘Ratna Bhandar,’ will meet on July 9 to fix the date for reopening of the temple’s treasury.
Bhubaneswar: The high-level committee, set up by Odisha government to supervise the Shree Jagannath Temple Managing Committee in carrying out inventorisation of valuables including jewellery in the ‘Ratna Bhandar,’ will meet on July 9 to fix the date for reopening of the temple’s treasury.
Speaking to mediapersons after a meeting in Puri on Saturday, Justice Biswanath Rath, who is the chairman of the high-level committee, said, “After examining the available documents and record, it was found that a duplicate key of the Ratna Bhandar is there in the Puri government treasury. So, we have decided to hold another meeting of the panel on July 9 to fix the date for the reopening of the Ratna Bhandar.”
As the inner chamber of the treasury has not been opened for several decades, the lock of the door might not be working. An SOP will be prepared with the approval of the government to break the lock in such a situation, Rath said.
