Odisha to Test Ghee Quality at Jagannath Temple Amid Tirupati Row

Odisha government to test the quality of ghee used at Jagannath Temple to ensure purity in temple offerings.

The decision follows national concerns over alleged use of animal fat in the ghee for Tirupati laddus in Andhra Pradesh.

Puri District Collector stated there are no allegations on the ghee used, but the administration aims to ensure quality.

Testing will focus on ghee used for 'Kotha Bhoga' offerings and 'Baradi Bhoga' at the 12th-century Jagannath Temple.

Omfed, the Odisha Milk Federation, is the sole supplier of ghee for the temple, ensuring all supplies meet quality standards.

Temple servitors express commitment to maintaining the purity of offerings, ensuring no compromise in faith and devotion.
