In response to the 2011 census, there are 979 females per 1,000 males within the state. Equally, within the 2013 survey report, it’s discovered that there are 873 girls out of 1,000 males within the Sevayat household
The variety of ladies within the households of Sri Jagannath temple servants is reducing. In response to the survey carried out by Navkrishna Chowdhury Middle for Research, out of 1,003 individuals, there are 586 males and 420 females. Because of this, these households are going through issues concerning their son’s marriage. There’s a rising concern among the many servitors on how one can equalize this ratio.
As per custom, the daughter of servitors will marry solely inside their group. For instance, the daughter of Gopinath Mohanatra, Suar Sevayat is a health care provider. He determined to marry the lady to a extremely educated particular person in his group. Daughters of many servitors’ daughters are doing jobs overseas and out of doors the state.
“Lowering intercourse ratio within the sevayat household is a matter of concern. As per custom, sevayta who’re performing numerous rituals for the holy trinity in Jagannath temple, marry their kids in their very own group. In the event that they marry out of the group, they can’t carry out the rituals. Preserving this in thoughts, Garabudu Niyoga has adopted the Beti Bacha Yojana,” stated Suar Sevayat Gopinath Mohapatra.
In response to the 2011 census, there are 979 females per 1,000 males within the state. Equally, within the 2013 survey report, it’s discovered that there are 873 girls out of 1,000 males within the Sevayat household.
Evaluating the survey report of 2005 and 2013, the variety of ladies has decreased in sevayat households akin to Pushpalak, Khuntia, Pratihari, Daitapati, Roshkoth, Bhog, Paniya, Dutt, Mahapatra, and so forth. Nevertheless, based mostly on the survey report of 2017, there have been 8,385 servitors, whereas in 2019 there have been 8,680 servitors. In 2021, the ratio of ladies to males is 924 to 1,000. However, there’s a monetary incentive system for the upper schooling of sevayat’s daughters.
Shree Jagannath Temple Ritual Administrator Ajay Jena stated, “Temple administration is taking all steps for this. We’re taking applicable steps like a monetary incentive system for the upper schooling of sevayat’s daughters and welfare of servitors’ kids to keep up the stability.”
