No secret chamber in Puri Jagannath temple's Ratna Bhandar: Odisha minister Prithiviraj Harichandan
Odisha's Law Minister Prithiviraj Harichandan announced that a preliminary ground-penetrating radar survey by the Archaeological Survey of India found no secret tunnels or chambers in Puri's Jagannath temple treasury. However, cracks were identified. Repairs will be conducted post Kartika Purnima, followed by an inventory of Lord Jagannath's valuables. The ongoing heavy rush of devotees delays immediate repairs.
