Konark: After Dhauli, the State Tourism Department will soon start the light and sound show at Konark sun temple to attract more tourists.
The trial of the project which is designed with the joint efforts of ITDC and Odisha Tourism Department was held on Wednesday in presence of Culture minister Ashok Panda, Revenue Minister Maheswar Mohanty and local MLA here.
The 45-minute show will describe the glory behind the construction of temple, story of Dharmapada and Samba and reason of decay of the shrine.

The background voice for the show is given by Kabir Bedi in English, Sekhar Suman in Hindi and Bijay Mohanty in Odia.
"This is the second project after Dhauli. We will initiate measures to set up a similar project at Khandagiri soon," Culture Minister Ashok Panda said.
