Traders expect good biz during Puri fest

Traders in Orissa expect to do brisk business during the ongoing chariot festival that started on Wednesday.

Tens of thousands of devotees come from all over the world to participate in the massive procession at Puri.

Amid tight security, the festival is celebrated by pulling the chariots of Lord Jagannath, along with sister Subhadra and brother Balram, from the temple through the city's decorated streets.
