In a troubling breach of security, a drone was spotted flying over the revered Jagannath Temple in Puri on Sunday, raising serious questions about the enforcement of the no-fly zone surrounding the sacred site.
According to sources, the drone hovered above the temple complex—including Anand Bazaar and Snana Mandap—for approximately 15 minutes during the ritual of changing the temple’s ceremonial flags.
This marks the second such incident within a week, sparking concern among devotees and temple authorities.
Despite the temple being designated a high-security zone, repeated drone intrusions have exposed vulnerabilities in surveillance and enforcement.
Authorities are now under pressure to identify the source of the drone and prevent future violations.
