The Rath Yatra (Chariot Festival) is a significant event in the Hindu calendar, and in Agartala, the capital of Tripura, the celebration was marked with great fervour. The procession began at the ISKCON temple in Agartala and made its way through various streets of the city.
Prominent political figures such as Rajeev Bhattacharya, the President of the BJP state unit, Mayor Deepak Majumdar, Minister Tinku Ray, Minister Sushant Choudhury, and others were in attendance to witness the grand spectacle.
The Rath Yatra is a symbol of unity and devotion for Hindus, as they come together to pull the chariot of Lord Jagannath, Balabhadra, and Subhadra. The procession is a vibrant display of colours, music, and dance, as devotees chant hymns and offer prayers along the way.
The Rath Yatra is not just a religious event, but also a cultural celebration that brings people from all walks of life together. It is a time for reflection, prayer, and community bonding. The festival is a reminder of the rich cultural heritage and traditions that have been passed down through generations.
