| Description |
Probably the most famous library of Odisha. Non-Hindus who are not allowed to enter the Jagannath temple can spy from the roof of Raghunandan Library opposite; a ‘donation’, while not officially compulsory, is expected. 9 important persons who were denied entry into the Sri Mandir: 2006 - Elizabeth Jigler, the highest donor to the temple 2005 - Mahachakri Siridharan, the Queen of Thailand, 1984 - Indira Gandhi, Prime Minister of India, 1977 - Swami Pravupada, ISKCON movement founder, 1945 - B R Ambedkar, Father of Indian Constitution, 1934 - Mahatma Gandhi, 1934 - Acharya Vinoba Bhave, 1900 - Lord Curzon, Former British Viceroy of India, Rabindranath Tagore. details on their "visits" - in a very interesting article: [http://gopaljiu.org/excerpts/kk_13_history_pp_40-43.pdf Famously Refused] and in Mainstream, Vol XLVIII, No 20, May 8, 2010 Two Events in Tagore’s Life by K.Biswas. It is not clear to me whether R.Tagore was ever attempting to visit the temple or just banned by Regulation IV of 1809 excluding his cast. Debate on temple entry bar |
