New Delhi: The Biju Janata Dal has come down heavily on the BJP on the issue of establishment of permanent Orissa High Court bench in western Odisha.
Whenever elections come BJP starts shedding crocodile tears about the western Odisha High Court bench and after the elections they forget, BJD Rajya Sabha MP Dr. Sasmit Patra said.
The BJD MP said, “The BJP should ask its party in power in Centre to establish the western Odisha High Court Bench using the powers under Entry-78 of the Union List through the Indian Parliament. Who is stopping them?”
Several times before and again on 5th September, 2018 Chief Minister Naveen Patnaik has given total commitment to the Centre to provide all adequate resources including infrastructural and financial resources for setting up of the western Odisha High Court bench. Despite the CM’s blank cheque for all works in this regard, why the Centre is not proceeding to name the location in consultation with Orissa High Court is surprising, Dr. Patra said.
Why is the BJP misleading and indulging in falsehood on this sensitive matter?, he asked.
