leader of Opposition (loP) Narasingha Mishra (Congress) on Friday demanded that a House Committee be constituted taking MlAs from all parties to conduct an impartial probe into the alleged ritual delays and unavailability of Mahaprasad at the Shree Jagannath Temple in Puri.
Raising the issue during Zero Hour, Mishra said devotees were deprived of Mahaprasad for the last four days and the deities were kept fasting. The Orissa High Court has stated that its order vis-à-vis opening of Jagamohan and entry to Garvagruha has been misinterpreted. The servitors’ body and the Shree Jagannath Temple Administration are blaming each other for the irregularities. Hence, all these needs a probe, he said.
He demanded that a House Committed be formed so that an impartial probe can be done to bring out the truth.
