Puri: The twelfth century Jagannath sanctuary in Puri will implement a clothing regulation for fans from January 1, an authority said on Monday. The choice was taken at the ‘Niti’ sub-council meeting after a couple of individuals were tracked down in the sanctuary in “disgusting” dresses, he said.
“It is our obligation to keep up with the poise and holiness of the sanctuary. Sadly, certain individuals have been tracked down visiting the sanctuary without thinking often about the strict feelings of others,” said Shree Jagannath Sanctuary Organization boss Ranjan Kumar Das.
“Certain individuals were found in the sanctuary wearing torn pants, sleeveless dresses and half-pants, as though they were walking around the ocean side or a recreation area. The sanctuary is the residence of God, not a spot for diversion,” he said.
The sort of dresses to be permitted will before long be chosen, he added.
“The clothing regulation will be totally authorized inside the sanctuary from January 1, 2024. Security work force sent at ‘Singha Dwar’ of the sanctuary, and Pratihari servitors inside the sanctuary have been alloted the obligation to uphold the code,” Mr Das said.
The sanctuary organization will begin making mindfulness about the clothing regulation among the aficionados from Tuesday, he said.
Individuals wearing half-plants, shorts, torn pants, skirts, and sleeveless dresses won’t be permitted passage into the sanctuary, he said.
