A total 7000 tickets will be sold by the Shree Jagannath Temple Administration (SJTA) for a 'darshan' of the sibling deities on June 19, an official said on Thursday.
A special ritual 'Nabajouban Darshan' will be held at the 12th century shrine on the day, which will mark the end of the 15-day ‘Anabasar’ (quarantine period) after the 'Snana Jatra'.
The Shree Jagannath Temple Administration (SJTA) said that devotees who buy the Rs 100 tickets can see the deities between 8 am to 9 am on June 19, after the 'Netro Ustav' ritual at the shrine.
'Paramanik Darshan' (paid darshan) ticket holders will be allowed to enter the temple through the Dakshin Dwara (south gate), SJTA chief administrator Ranjan Kumar Das told reporters here on Thursday.
The temple doors will be closed after 11 am on that day for preparations of the famed Ratha Jatra to be held the next day, an official said.
Special arrangements are being made for 'Nabajouban Darshan' of the deities, who were out of bounds for the devotees since the 'Snana Jatra' (bathing ritual), which fell on June 4 this year, Das said.
Puri superintendent of police Kanwar Vishal Singh said 70 platoons (on platoon has 30 personnel) of the police force will be deployed for the smooth conduct of 'Nabajouban Darshan' of the deities.
