PURI: The Jagannath temple administration will restrict non-servitors from selling Mahaprasad in Ananda Bazaar inside the temple. Besides, sale of ‘Tanka Torani’ will also be stopped in the Ananda Bazaar. The decision follows a High Court order on a PIL filed by one Chittarajan Mohanty on January 30. He had alleged that non-servitors were reaping profit by selling food in the name of Mahaprasad inside the Ananda Bazaar and the ‘Tanka Torani’ is prepared under unhygienic conditions.

The temple’s Chief Administrator Bikash Chandra Mahapatra and Collector Aravind Agarwal held discussion with the Suar-Mahasuar Nijog, the servitor body that deals with cooking and selling of Mahaparasad, on the orders on Saturday.
