Month before Rath Yatra, work on Puri’s grand chariots grinds to a halt

Carpenters constructing the grand chariots for Puri's Rath Yatra have halted work due to a dispute with the Jagannath temple administration. Artisans claim they are entitled to leftover timber, but a temple officer has prevented them from taking it. Efforts are underway to resolve the issue amicably.
