Next 5 yrs crucial, promises made will be fulfilled: Odisha CM Mohan Majhi | Bhubaneswar News
BHUBANESWAR: Chief minister Mohan Majhi here on Sunday said the next five years will be crucial for the newly formed BJP govt to meet the expectations of the people. He asserted that the promises made by the party in its election manifesto would be fulfilled within the next five years.
“People of the state gave us an opportunity to serve for the first time.We have to work hard and deliver. The next five years will be fraught with challenges. Prime Minister Narendra Modi recently described BJP’s performance in Odisha as revolutionary and said the state will play a crucial role as one of the key growth engines in India’s development over the next 25 years,” said Majhi addressed a meeting, organized by the BJP to felicitate the newly elected 20 Lok Sabha members and 78 MLAs in the state.
Majhi praised every worker and leader of the party whose years of efforts and sacrifice allowed BJP to end BJD’s uninterrupted governance of 24 years.
He added, “The govt has accorded topmost priority to women, farmers, youth, poor, ST and SC communities and their development. The govt would provide a minimum support price of Rs 3,100 for every quintal of paddy, piped water connection to all the households, pucca houses for the poor and jobs to the unemployed, among others.”
Union education minister Dharmendra Pradhan congratulated the newly elected MLAs and MPs, likening Mohan Majhi and two deputy chief ministers K V Singh Deo and Pravati Parida to Lord Jagannath and his siblings, Lord Balabhadra and Devi Subhadra. Pradhan said development of Odisha is currently the focus of the Modi govt and emphasized that Majhi’s team will help build a new Odisha and contribute to the development of a ‘Viksit Bharat’.
Union tribal affairs minister Jual Oram advised first time BJP MLAs and MPs to prioritize the nation first, followed by the party and lastly, themselves. Oram said, “Majhi should take some bold steps for the govt’s success. People expect us to work for them. Leadership is not about a position, it’s about action. Our conduct, and behaviour, tone and tenure of functioning should be people-friendly.”
