Conveying his greetings to the people of West Bengal on the occasion of Rath Yatra, Governor Keshari Nath Tripathi on Saturday said this is an occasion for joy and festivity which transcends the barriers of caste, creed, faith and community.
Tripathi observed that the Rath Yatra is an age-old tradition of Bengal.
"My best wishes for the well-being of the people of the state on this occasion," he said.
The Rath Yatra takes place on the day when Lord Jagannath is carried on a chariot by devotees from his temple abode of Puri.
