After Gods, Priests were given the divine position. We seek the blessings given by priests with utmost devotion. However, the blessing offered by a priest in Odisha has become controversial. A temple priest in Banpur in Khurda district of Odisha offers a different kind of blessing to the devotees. It has gone viral on social media.

Some of the devotees who had come to do Vehicle puja during the Dussehra festival were thrilled to see the priest giving blessings by keeping his leg on their heads. This news got different opinions online. While some are saying that this is quite common some are completely opposing this. Some are even arguing that this is the tradition since generations and people who don't know will record this kind of news and make it viral.
