He thanked the Odisha government, Puri administration, and thousands of workers too for conducting the event in such discipline without let or hindrance.
महाप्रभु श्री जगन्नाथ जी की दिव्य रथयात्रा के दर्शन का सौभाग्य पाकर धन्य हुआ।
भक्तों के बीच साक्षात भगवान को देखना, विनम्रता, सरलता और करुणा की पराकाष्ठा का अनुभव है।
यह रथ यात्रा आस्था, सेवा और एकता का विराट स्वरूप है, जो मन, बुद्धि और आत्मा, तीनों को आनंदित कर देती है।

Gautam Adani seeks Lord Jagannath’s blessing
Addressing the media, Adani said, “I had nothing, and by the blessings of Lord Jagannath and the citizens of this country, I possess everything today. I prayed for a prosperous future for our nation and the development of Odisha, so that all the people get the benefits of development.”
In a matter personal commitment, Adani Group head also engaged in the ‘Prasad Seva’ at the ISKCON Kitchen in Puri, wherein he assisted in preparing food for devotees.
