PM Modi mentioned that Lord Jagannath embarks on a city tour during Rath Yatra to allow people to catch a glimpse of him, which is celebrated with great enthusiasm in various parts of the country.
The Prime Minister said that many are unaware of the origin of the English word 'Juggernaut', which as per the dictionaries, originated from the Rath Yatra. He also said Lord Jagannath is the god of the poor and downtrodden.
CM Majhi, in his video message, said, "May our state reach the pinnacle of development in every field. He prayed for building a new and prosperous Odisha with the cooperation of all."
