Employment is a big issue in the State now. If the State Government fails to provide employment, the youth should not cast vote for the ruling party,” said Odisha Jan Morcha (OJM) chief Pyarimohan Mohapatra on the occasion of the party’s Jan Adhikar Yatra that has started from October 23. Mohapatra said the Government had promised employment for 44 lakh youths, but it has remained in pen and paper. Due to lack of a proper agriculture policy, 500 farmers have committed suicide, he added. Mohapatra, attending a meeting at Budipadar under Narla block in Kalahandi district, called upon people not to vote for the political leaders who deceive them. He gave the slogan ‘No employment, no vote’ at the meeting. The Jan Adhikar Yatra, which was started from Sambalpur, would continue till December 8 covering all the Assembly constituencies.
