Union Minister Dharmendra Pradhan coming down heavily on the State Government said time has come to oust the 19-year-long inefficient and corrupt BJD regime.
Addressing a gathering at Nilgiri in his party's Jan Paramarsh Yatra programme on Sunday, he launched a scathing attack on the State Government on several fronts.
Pradhan demanded a CBI probe into the Pipli gangrape and murder incident. He alleged the PEETHA, a flagship programme of the BJD Government, is “full of PC stuff” and has become stale too.
He too criticised the KALIA scheme of the State Government alleging that farmers are facing deep crisis for selling their produces, particularly paddy, as the money is going to middlemen’s pockets even when the Modi Government has enhanced the paddy MSP to Rs 1,750.
Pradhan also alleged that hospitals don't have adequate doctors and educational institutions face dearth of teachers and farmers are struggling due to lack of irrigation facilities.
Stating that the State Government is in neck-deep in corruption, Pradhan claimed that there would be a change in government in the 2019 polls as voters have made up their minds for this.
