Amidst beating of cymbals, blowing of conch shells and chanting of 'Hari Bol', Lord Ja- gannath and his celestial sib- lings' annual Ratha Jatra began in Odisha's Puri on Monday with strict adherence to COVID-19 protocols as the entire coastal town was placed under curfew.
This was for the second consecutive year and the second time in the history of the 12th- century shrine that the annual mega-festival, considered one of the biggest religious events in the country, was held sans devotees.
The entire 3-km stretch of the Grand Road in front of the temple wore a deserted look as only some selected priests and police personnel were allowed to participate in the festival.
Only those servitors, po- lice personnel and officials who have tested negative for COVID-19 have been allowed to take part in the festival, Puri Collector Samarth Verma said.
Gatherings on streets or rooftops have been prohibited. The curfew has been imposed in the interest of public health, he said.
The elaborate rituals started from Sunday night and the sibling deities, Lord Balabhadra, Devi Subhadra and Lord Jagannath, along with Lord Sudarshan, were carried to their re- spective chariots in a step-by-step procession called 'Pahandi'.
Descending from the 'Ratna Sinhasana', the bejewelled throne, the three deities were taken out of the temple down the 22 steps known as 'Baisi Pahacha' through the Lion's Gate in an elaborate ritual.

the help of youth. He said that on the one hand the youth of Punjab were struggling for employ- ment on the streets and on the other hand Captain Saab is enjoying the cool air of AC's. On this occa-
sion he said that during the Shiromani Akali Dal gov- ernment the party presi- dent Sukhbir Singh Badal had made the youth self reliant by giving them jobs. He lashed out at Capt. Amarinder Singh's government in Punjab, saying that Capt. Amarinder Singh had gar- nered votes by offering door-to-door service but on the other hand, unem- ployment was rampant in the state apart from infla- tion. It seems that the peo- ple will bring misery to the Capt. Amarinder Singh government instead of voting in the forthcoming Assembly elections.

Through the efforts of the Shiromani Akali Dal, Punjab became a power surplus state which was ruined by the poor policies of the Captain's Gov- ernment. Now Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal has proved his anti-Punjab stance by filing a petition in the Supreme Court seeking clo- sure of Punjab's thermal plants.
The people of Punjab need to be aware of this.This was stated by the President of Shiromani Akali Dal District Bathinda Mr. Balkar Singh Brar after addressing the meetings in different villages of Vidhan Sabha constituen- cy Bhucho Mandi. He al-
leged that on one hand Arvind Kejriwal was promis- ing to forgive 300 units to the people of Punjab, on the oth- er, there are peti- tions for closure of thermal plants in Punjab, which reveals his dual politics.
On the one hand, Arvind Ke- jriwal talks about the rights of Pun- jab, on the way to Delhi he demands water for Delhi. He said that AAP was working as a B team of Congress in Punjab and not accepting the resig- nation of any MLA was a proof of this. But now the AAP is gone, every section is
unhappy with the policies of the Congress government and want SAD to power. He said that free electricity and
water facility was provided to the farmers by the Shiro- mani Akali Dal.
But the poor policies of the Cap- tain's govern- ment shut down every facility. He appealed to the people to
vote in the 2022 elections Support the Shiromani Akali Dal so that facilities can be provided to all sections when the government is formed.
