The ancient temple of Lord Jagannath is supposed to be the only temple of Lord Jagannath in north India.Thousands of devotees did not let pass the opportunity to pull the rath of Lord Jagannath. A special rath was constructed for the yatra.

The organiser said the decision to organise the yatra was taken two years ago. The yatra started from the ancient temple which passed from different parts of the town.
