This term combines 'Deva' (god or deity), 'ala' (temple or abode), and 'parichha' (caretaker or manager). It refers to a specific temple officer responsible for the administration and management of the Jagannath Temple in Khurda, Odisha. While historically appointed by the Collector under the Raja's authority, the appointment process might have changed over time. The Dev Ala Parichha, along with two other officers, played a crucial role in overseeing the temple's rituals, finances, and overall functioning.
