As the three-day Rathyatra festivity began in the city, around 70-80 makeshift stalls of nankhatai
have sprouted at entire Rathyatra region. If the vendors of these
nankhatai stalls are to be believed, nankhatais worth Rs 60-70 lakhs
would be sold during the festival.
According to vendors who have set up their shops for the Rathyatra festival, this season Besan Nankhatai is in demand.
Huge quantity of besan nankhkatai is being sold. According to Ashok, a nankhatai wala, while nankhatai is a popular delicacy in most of the fares, Rathyatra fare is the most prominent for us, as the nankhatai is offered to Lord Jagannath as 'prasad'.
Nankhatais of this season are also transported to other cities like Kolkata, Delhi, Mumbai, Lucknow and neighbouring cities. "Relatives and friends of people who come here as devotees give prior orders and thus after offering the delicacy to lord, send it to their near and dear ones residing in other cities," he informed.
