Flood water enters Bhattarika Temple in Odisha, deity relocated

Cuttack: Incessant rainfall in Mahanadi river basin has resulted in entry of flood water inside Maa Bhattarika Temple at Narasinghpur in Odisha’s Cuttack district.

While the temple and its nearby areas have been inundated, rituals of the temple came to a grinding halt due to waterlogging.

The idol of the deity has also been relocated by the Endowment Department. Knee-deep water has been surrounding the temple and its premises for the last two days, reports said.
