The BJD is in power for the last 23 years. Isn’t the safety and security of the people of the State their responsibility? Some time, they are writing a letter and sometime they are making a political statement though their spokespersons. But by that the Mahanadi river won’t be saved or Odisha’s development ensured, said the BJP on Friday.
The BJD is saying that the Mahanadi is Odisha’s lifeline. But they should express before people what steps they have taken for the Mahanadi in the last 23 years. When the Chhattisgarh Government was constructing dams on the Mahanadi, why the Odisha Government was in slumber? The Odisha Government forgetting its responsibility is only blaming others. It failed to present facts and arguments in the Water Tribunal which is highly unfortunate, said BJP State spokesperson DilipMallick.
