The International Society for Krishna Consciousness (ISKCON), Bangladesh has expressed its gratitude to the interim government and all concerned for their support in ensuring the peaceful celebration of the Rath Yatra festival.

The organisation conveyed sincere appreciation to the interim government, civil administration, police, RAB, intelligence agencies, Bangladesh Army, Navy, Power Division, Health Services, Fire Service and Civil Defence, and all other relevant government departments for their wholehearted cooperation, UNB reported, citing a press release.

It extended thanks to various social and political organisations, national and international media, dedicated volunteers, and the general public, whose support and participation made the festival a secure, graceful, and devotional event.
