BJP leader and former Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan on Tuesday lambasted the Naveen Patnaik-led BJD Government, saying the CM runs the State administration on an “outsourcing model”.
Chouhan said this on his arrival here. Later, he visited Jagatsinghpur where he met booth-level BJP workers and reviewed Lok Sabha election preparedness.
“In Odisha, a peculiar kind of government is being run by Naveen Patnaik, who has not only outsourced the governance to certain bureaucrats but allowed them to indulge in large-scale irregularities and corruption,” alleged Chouhan.
“Women are also not safe here in Odisha. Law and order is completely in a shambles,” said he.
He said: “The Central schemes are not being properly implemented here. On the other hand, the funds sent by the Centre are being rebranded by the CM as his own.”
Chouhan said the people of Odisha love PM Narendra Modi, whose popularity rate in the State is higher than any other leader. “We will not only win more Lok Sabha seats but also form a government in Odisha,” he claimed.
