Why Ratna Bhandar Audit a Secret? ।। ଗୋପନୀୟ ରତ୍ନଭଣ୍ଡାର ତାଲିକା।। The Samata ।। Kedar Mishra

The Ratna Bhandar was never a private vault of any government. Historically, its audit was a public question. The 1978 inventory was cited in the Assembly, discussed in court, and known to the people of Odisha — gold, silver, ornaments, weights. Lord Jagannath’s treasury belongs to the Lord and to public trust. That is why secrecy around it always raises one question: who is being protected? Now the Mohan Majhi government is conducting the inventory in a closed, controlled manner. Law Minister Prithiviraj Harichandan has said the latest list will not be placed in the public domain. It will be preserved for government viewing. Tradition is being invoked. Reels are being blamed. Ritual confidentiality is being used as a wall.If the process is clean, why is the report being locked away? If everything matches the 1978 list, why fear public scrutiny? If this government once demanded openness on missing keys and hidden reports, why has transparency become dangerous only after it came to power?In this episode of The Samata, Kedar Mishra asks what the BJP government is trying to hide — and for whom.Is this about protecting sacred tradition? Or about keeping the people outside the room while the state’s most sensitive treasure is counted? Watch. Think. Demand an answer.Like the video. Subscribe to The Samata. Turn on the bell.
