Ruling alliance misusing official machinery for bypoll, says Jena
Correspondent
KORAPUT: The ruling BJD-BJP government was using the government machinery like anganwadi workers to gather support of the SHGs in Laxmipur by-election, Jayadev Jena, president of Orissa Pradesh Congress Committee alleged. Expressing his concern over lack of development in the region he said the State Government had failed in utilising the funds allotted by the Central government. He was addressing an election rally at Kashipur in support of Purna Chandra Majhi, the party’s candidate for Laxmipur byelection.
Union Minister Ajay Makan said a number of Ministers of the ruling alliance in the state are camping in the constituency to campaign for their party nominee, while they were not seen when Kashipur was reeling under cholera. He said that it was Rajiv Gandhi, who was responsible for initiating the multi-crore project to bring down poverty in the region.
