During the monsoon season in Bhubaneswar, the heavy rains can often disrupt daily life. Recently, there have been a few noteworthy events that have taken place in the neighboring cities of Puri and Cuttack.

In Puri, the Bhoi servitors were seen carefully taking apart and carrying a charioteer idol from a Rath Yatra chariot. This annual festival, which sees the idols of deities being taken on a grand procession, is a highly revered event in the city. It is heartwarming to see the dedication and care with which the servitors handle these idols.

Another issue that has been a cause for concern in Puri is the untreated drain water being diverted to the sea. This has led to a major environmental problem, with the water being polluted and affecting the marine life. The authorities are working towards finding a solution to this problem and ensuring the cleanliness of the sea.

In Cuttack, the students of Ravenshaw University gathered in front of the Vice-Chancellor's office to protest. They had a six-point charter of demands, and they were determined to make their voices heard. It is inspiring to see the youth taking an active role in bringing attention to important issues and fighting for their rights.

The monsoon season may bring its own challenges, but it is also a time for communities to come together and support each other. These events in Puri and Cuttack serve as reminders of the resilience and strength of the people in these cities.
