The Daru of lord Sudarshan was carried on Tuesday from Gadakuntunia to Puri by a specially made Sagadi (cart).
The Daru is expected to reach the Shree Madir on April 24.
The Daru which was reduced to Chaupata was wrapped in seven layers of silk cloth and fastened to the Sagadi with specially made silk (Basunga Pata) ropes prepared by Patera Bisoyi servitors. The Sagadi carrying lord Sudarshan’s Daru left Gadakuntunia at around 4 PM on Tuesday for Puri.
A group of servitors are taking the Daru to Puri while adequate security arrangements have been made for its smooth journey.
