Addressing the lawmakers, Patnaik in his advisory told the MlAs and the MPs not to appoint any of their kith and kin or even their distant relatives as their representative in their respective constituencies.
He also told them not to appoint their relatives or family members as chairman of their Urban local Bodies (UlBs) and Panchayati Raj Institutions (PRIs).
