[edit] Jaganath Ratha-Yatra

I removed the following today because it seemed to be describing something different to the Jaganath Ratha-Yatra (originating in Puri) being detailed in the article:

Major Rath Yatra festivals of Radha Rani are organized anually in India and abroad by the Hindu Spiritual leader Jagadguru Shree Kripaluji Maharaj. The largest in the west is the Radha Rani Rath Yatra festival at Barsana Dham in America. The largest in India is the Rath Yatra of Jagadguru Shree Kripaluji Maharaj himself, which happens anually near the holy city of Kunda. [1]

Although called a 'Ratha Yatra', it does not appear to be the same festival as that including Jaganatha, Balarama and Subhadra. Also it contains a number of potentially point of view statements regarding the size of festivals rather than being written in an encyclopedic tone. Regards, Gouranga(UK) 09:50, 30 October 2007 (UTC)
