Over ten lakh devotees witnessed the world famous annual Rath Yatra of Lord Jagannath held here today with fanfare, religious fervour and enthusiasm amid tight security as the practice of people climbing the chariots was stopped in a major reform initiative.
However, Puri Shankaracharya Swami Nischalananda Saraswati did not visit the chariots before they were pulled accusing the Odisha government of interfering in religious matters by asking him to ascend the raths (chariots) alone without his disciples.
"The state government has dared to dictate terms to the Shankaracharya of Puri. I will not visit the chariots before they are pulled for Rath Yatra," Saraswati had told reporters at the Govardhan Peeth in Puri yesterday.
Devotees from across the country and abroad descended on the pilgrim town of Puri in Odisha for a glimpse of the presiding deities of the 12th century shrine of Sri Jagannath and mingled with the sea of humanity during the annualfestival of chariots.
"The festival was held peacefully in a smooth manner. There was no untoward incident as elaborate security measures were taken," a senior police officer said.
A tight security net comprising around 7,000 police personnel was in place as a precautionary measure, he said adding apart from force deployment, CCTV and spy cameras had been installed.
Personnel of Anti Terrorist Squad (ATS), Rapid Action Force (RAF) and sharp shooters were deployed at vital points while the Coast Guard kept a vigil on the sea.
The annual event was marked by a major reform – the practice of devotees climbing the chariots and touching the deities was put to an end.
Devotees poured in to the seaside town since early morning to watch the ceremony and pull the three majestic and colourful chariots on the 'bada danda', the grand avenue.
A host of VIPs including Odisha Governor S C Jamir and Chief Minister Naveen Patnaik witnessed the proceedings. As the presiding deities, Lord Jagannath, Lord Balabhadra and Devi Subhadra – set out from the sanctum sanctorum of the temple, a number of special rituals like 'Mangla Arati' and 'Mailam' were performed.
Descending from the Ratna Sinhasana, the bejewelled throne, the three deities were taken out of the temple down the 22 steps known as 'Baisi Pahacha' through the Lion's gate in an elaborate royal ritual called 'Pahandi' as devotees and sevayats jostled to have a glimpse and touch them.
In a rhythmic style, the deities moved froward step by step to the accompaniment of beating of 'ghantas' and 'kahalis' and blowing of konch shells.
The temple was thrown open to public only yesterday for 'Naba Jaubana Darshan' of the deities as they remained confined in 'Anasara Pindi' (recovery chamber) after the grand bath on 'Snana Purnima' held on June 13.
The trinity proceeded majestically in their journey to the world outside during Pahandi.
COSTA RICA VS GREECE,Costa Rica clinched a win over Greece to record their best ever performance in a World Cup.
Despite being reduced to 10 men for the last third of the game, Costa Rica clinched a win over Greece to record their best ever performance in a World Cup.
The Ticos have been on a fairytale run ever since topping Group D -- a so-called "Group of Death" -- and will now be contesting a World Cup quarterfinal thanks to Bryan Ruiz, who scored the decisive goal. Oscar Duarte saw himself sent off shortly afterwards, and Greece eventually found a breakthrough in the first minute of injury time when Sokratis Papastathopoulos scored to force extra time. But Costa Rica held on, and a heroic performance from Keylor Navas helped them after he produced a superb save to send the Ticos to a victory in the shootout.
The first half was mostly a cagey affair with both sides looking to play on the counter-attack, although there were a limited amount of chances. A decent move saw Ruiz feed Christian Bolanos early on, but the midfielder blazed his shot over the bar when well-placed to test the goalkeeper.
It was Greece who came the closest to scoring in the first half with José Holebas delivering a sensational cross from deep for Dimitris Salpingidis. Although the forward's cushioned volley was true, he still failed to score as Keylor Navas managed to keep it out with his trailing leg, another stunning save for a hugely impressive tournament for the Ticos keeper.
Yet less than 10 minutes into the second half, Costa Rica found their opener. Bolanos found Ruiz in space in the area, and the forward finished with a deliciously calm shot which took advantage of Karnezis' poor field of vision, calmly rolling the ball past him and into the corner of the net to give his country one foot in their first ever World Cupquarterfinal.
Costa Rica were looking on top, but the game was to take a further twist as Duarte foolishly went in with a late challenge on Holebas to earn himself a second yellow card and leave the Ticos with 30 minutes to hang on with a numerical disadvantage.
Greece poured forward with little to lose, but Costa Rica were holding out well enough. Georgios Samaras produced one archetypal piece of skill to unlock the Ticos' defence, falling over as he stumbled into putting a good ball into the box, but Navas was able to get it away.
Greece's terminal lack of creativity looked like it was going to cost them, yet another late goal was to come just as the game looked lost. Theofanis Gekas ought to have scored with his effort on goal and was denied by another huge save from Navas, but Papastathopoulos was waiting to prod home the rebound and prompt extra time.
Costa Rica were looking all but beaten due to exhaustion as the next 30 minutes began, but Gekas missed another fine chance after a good cross from Vasilis Torosidis. At the second half of extra time, the Ticos somehow managed to find some energy to briefly rally and create a few half-chances, with Brenes and Campbell both having decent opportunities.
Costa Rica came close from a corner but somehow contrived to allow Greece to spring a 5-on-2 counter-attack, yet when the shot eventually came from Mitroglou it was kept out by Navas, who produced another fine save to keep his team in the game. Despite the extreme fatigue of the players, the final 10 minutes were an end-to-end affair of chances at both ends, none greater than when Mitroglou collected a flick-on only for Navas, who flew out of his goal, to deny him.
It was left to penalties to separate the two sides -- Celso Borges smashed home the opening penalty before Mitroglou belied his earlier misses by confidently slotting one home. Ruiz and Christodoulopoulos both also converted in a display of excellent penalty-taking before Gonzalez and Holebas also scored. The exhausted Campbell then stepped up and managed to put his away.
Next to step up was the veteran Gekas, but Navas produced maybe the best moment of his superb tournament so far to thrust out a hand and deflect it away. Michael Umana then confidently dispatched his to complete the historic night for the tiny Central American nation.

LIVE:COSTA RICA VS GREECE,FINAL SCORE1-1,COSTA WINS ON PENALTIES 5-3,FIRST TIME IN QUARTER FINALS...
For the first time in its history, Costa Rica will play in the quarterfinal of the World Cup after defeating a dour, defensive Greece team in a penalty shootout. The Round of 16 match in Recife, Brazil, was tied 1-1 after regulation. Greece scored a late goal in stoppage time to even the score. Costa Rica was playing with only 10 men after one of its defenders, Oscar Duarte, was ejected in the 66th minute.
Duarte lunged at Greece's Jose Chovelas after Chovelas blew by Duarte. The dangerous, cynical foul earned Duarte a yellow card, but it was his second of the match. He was shown red and the referee sent him off. Costa Rica, who was up by one goal at the time, was forced to play the rest of the game down a player.
There was little scoring and few promising opportunities for most of the game from two teams who advanced to the knockout round on the strength of their defenses. And in the case of Costa Rica, its goalkeeper, Keylor Navas.
What looked to be the game's only goal was scored in the 52nd minute by Costa Rica's influential midfielder Bryan Ruiz. He strung a left-footed shot into the far right corner of the goal, placing his shot more than powering it, from the top of the box. It would take more than 40 more minutes for another ball to find the back of the net, an unlikely thought for most of the game.
Though Greece had more chances, some dangerous, Navas was stellar in stopping close-range shots, even when he faced an onslaught in the second half and the 30 minutes of extra time. He could do little to stop the shot from Sokratis Papastathopoulos, after having already stopped Theofanis Gekas. The rebound fell to the defender Papastathopoulos who slammed it into the back of the net.
What could have been truly demoralizing for Costa Rica, who has become the darling of this World Cup after beating Italy and Uruguay and tying England in the so-called group of death, was galvanizing. They defended ably, if frantically, in the overtime period, lasting until the penalty shootout.
Next up for Costa Rica, who has never advanced this far before, is the Netherlands, who defeated Mexico earlier in the day.
Costa Rica took the lead against Greece then saw themselves reduced to 10 men, with Greece equalising in the last minute. But the Ticos held on to clinch a win on penalties thanks to the heroics of Keylor Navas.

LATEST NEWS:The results of WWE's Money in the Bank 2014 pay-per-view are in...
The results of WWE's Money in the Bank 2014 pay-per-view are in, so it's time for us to look back on the evening and break down the highlights and low points that made the event what it was.
This year, the regular setup for the Money in the Bank event was thrown out the window. Rather than having two title defenses and two briefcase-related Ladder matches, WWE found itself with a single vacated title.
While still booking around the concept of two Ladder matches, the stakes were altered to a degree which some would say was even greater than before.
The audience was essentially guaranteed a new WWE World Heavyweight champion and a new permanent top contender for that same title in this event.
Did the events that transpired forecast a bright and interesting future for the WWE Universe, or was the PPV a disaster that spells certain doom?
Which matches were fun and entertaining, and which ones fell flat?
Let's break down the positives and negatives of the night, presented to you in order of appearance.
