Introduction
Bahuda Yatra, also known as the Return Car Festival or Ulta Ratha, is a significant event celebrated during the annual Rath Yatra festival of Lord Jagannath in Puri, Odisha, India. The term “Bahuda” means “return” or “reverse,” signifying the return journey of the deities.
Bahuda 2024 Date
The date of the Bahuda Yatra varies each year as it is based on the Hindu lunar calendar. Bahuda Yatra 2024 date in Odisha is 15 July 2024, Monday as per Odia calendar. Bahuda Yatra, Return Car Festival, or Ulta Ratha time are given below.
The chariot ride is not just a one-day festival; it is divided into four parts. The first is the chariot journey or the Ghosha Yatra. The second is the three idol worship and stays with all the rituals in the Gundicha temple.
The fifth day is Hera Panchami, the day on which Shri Jagannath becomes the victim of the wrath of Maa Lakshmi and the last ritual is the Bahuda Yatra. According to the scriptures, during the chariot journey, the trinity rides in their respective chariot in the north direction. During the journey to Bahuda, the trinity rides in a chariot in the south direction. The darshan of the Trinity in the chariot on these two occasions gives the same sacred blessings. The virtuous blessing is the same as Ashwamedha Yagyan.

Happy Bahuda Odia Wishes
The great holy Bahuda Yatra takes place on the tenth day of the lunar month of Ashadha. On this day Shri Jagannatha, Maa Subhadra, and Bada Thakur Balabhadra Mahaprabhu ride
in three chariots and come from the Gundicha temple to the Shree Mandira. The yatra on this holy day is called the Bahuda yatra. Since the Rath Yatra was held, the three chariots have been facing north in the same way as the Gundicha temple. The chariots are turned south on the eighth day before the Bahuda Yatra and prepared for the Bahuda Yatra. The Puri temple administration determines all policies, rules, and regulations. Preparations are underway for three Jiu’s departures through Nakachana Gate.
The Sharadhabali in front of the Nakachana Gate is cleaned and made for Bahuda Yatra. This is called the southward journey as the chariot takes a southward turn in this Bahuda journey.
On the ninth day, devotees consider three Jiu’s evening darshan very sacred and auspicious. The ninth day is the last day of three Jius at Mausi Maa Temple. The evening
of the ninth day is celebrated with the gathering of many devotees. Before the Bahuda yatra, three Jiu’s puja were held following all the rules and regulations. Crowds of devotees occur at the Gundicha temple once a year. After the Bahuda yatra, the Gundicha temple becomes purposeless again. Ninth days from the chariot ride, the Avada is being prepared for three jius at the Gundicha temple. First the chariot of the Bada Thakur Balabhadra, Taladhwaj begins its journey from the Gundicha temple to the Shri Mandir. Then begins the journey of Maa Subhadra’s chariot, Darpadalan and at last behind them Kalia Saanta rides in his Nandighosa chariot and starts his journey. The Lakshmi-Narayan meeting puja is held when the Nandighosa chariot reaches the Shri Mandir. Lord Jagannath calms the anger of Mother Lakshmi. This symbolizes the love, affection, and attachment between husband and wife.
Preparations for Bahuda
Preparations for the Bahuda Yatra begin on the eighth day. Since the Rath Yatra, three chariots have been in front of the Jayabijaya gate of the Gundicha temple. Later, on the eighth day, the three chariots are turned south. The trinity started their journey in Sharadhabali through the Nakchana gate of the Gundicha temple. The chariot journey begins when the agyan mala comes from the Lord. After agyan mala, three chariots are pulled by the devotees in Sharadha Bali and returned from Gundicha temple to Sri Mandir.
