50th Rath Yatra Festivals
Hindu devotees take part in the Puja of Lord Jagannath as a symbolic gesture after the Rath Yatra procession was cancelled amid concerns over the spread of the COVID-19 coronavirus, in Kolkata, India on July 12, 2021. According to mythology, the Ratha Yatra dates back some 5,000 years when Hindu god Krishna, along with his older brother Balaram and sister Subhadra, were pulled on a chariot from Kurukshetra to Vrindavana by Krishna's devotees.
