‘Radha’ in Puri for Reunion with Lord Krishna
Newindpress
__________
Puri, Bihar (India):
Uttar Pradesh IGP D K Panda, who has been in the thick of controversy over his proclamations of being ‘‘Doosri Radha’’ and for donning female attire, arrived in Puri via Bhubaneswar on Sunday.
At Puri, he was accorded a warm welcome by Rabinarayan Sahoo, secretary of the Biswakarma Taxi Karmachari Sangha and a number of locals who prostrated themselves before him. He then went to the temple for darshan of Lord Jagannath, considered an incarnation of Krishna. Before entering the temple he daubed his feet with the red ‘alata’ colour.

Earlier, as he alighted from the train at the Bhubaneswar railway station, dressed in a salwar kameej with an odhni over his head, sporting bangles and earrings, he immediately cornered all attention.
While waiting acquaintances and mediapersons closed in on him, curious onlookers at the station jostled with each other to have a glimpse of the police officer. An unfazed Panda obliged all when he broke into hymns and chants in praise of Lord Krishna.
Panda, who had recently left his official residence in Lucknow, said he had surrendered himself completely to the Lord and his life was being guided by His instructions.
