There was an earthquake in the state politics after the sharp statement of the Union Minister, the opposition targeted
After this sharp statement of the Union Minister, there has been an earthquake in the politics of the state. The main opposition parties Biju Janata Dal (BJD) and Congress have started cornering the ruling BJP. BJD leader Pramila Malik said that Oram is a big tribal leader of the state and his statement clearly shows how deep the internal differences are in the BJP. Instead of working for the public, party leaders are entangled among themselves. At the same time, Odisha Congress President Bhakta Charan Das termed Oram's language as unparliamentary and harsh and said that there is no place for violent statements in India's democracy. This kind of rhetoric reflects the mentality of the party in Gandhi's country.
