BJP leader and Bhubaneswar MP Aparajita Sarangi has called on Odisha Chief Minister Naveen Patnaik to follow ‘Rajdharma’ and stop behaving like ‘Dhritarashtra’. Sarangi accused some members of Mission Shakti of carrying stones, eggs, and black flags during her visit to the Athantra area in the Bhubaneswar Parliamentary segment. She stated that whenever she visits the area to meet people and hear their concerns, there are protests happening. This has been going on for the past three days.
In response to Sarangi’s allegations, BJD spokesperson Shreemayee Mishra expressed surprise and said that Sarangi gets irritated whenever a voter asks her something. Mishra also criticized Sarangi for labeling the voters as hooligans, implying that hooligans have voted her into power.
