The eviction drive at Puri reached the historic Emara Matha today. The matha which stands as a testimony of Ramanujacharya's arrival at Puri and his influence on the traditions of the temple is not only a heritage building but also a sacred place of worship for Vaishnavas 
The matha which is believed to have been established by the disciples of Ramanujacharya and derives its name from Embar the cousin brother of Ramanujacharya. It is widely believed to be the place where Ramanujacharya stayed during his stint at Puri.
The matha has been involved in various social activities apart from being the supervisor of rituals at Srimandira. While Puri Shankaracharya is famous worldwide as protector of dharma at SriKshetra not many know that Emara Matha acharya was the spiritual guardian of the temple
