Puri, July 18: The inner chamber of the Ratna Bhandar at Srimandir in Puri is scheduled to reopen on July 18, as announced by Justice Biswanath Rath, chairman of the High-level Committee, on July 16.
This decision follows a significant meeting held in Puri earlier today.
Justice Rath stated that the inner chamber will be reopened on July 18 (Thursday) due to the inability to do so on the occasion of Suna Besha.
The auspicious time for the opening has been set between 9:51 am and 12:15 pm on that day, he added.
On July 14, the team faced an unexpected challenge when the keys provided failed to open the three locks securing the inner chamber. As a result, they had to break the locks to gain entry. However, due to time constraints, the team opted not to open the wooden chests stored inside the chamber.
