Kalahandi Diary: Emotional Leader, Other Side of Stoic Naveen

Bhubaneswar: Odisha Chief Minister Naveen Patnaik seldom expresses his emotion in the public places. However during his Kalahandi visit, he was seen bit emotional while watching a stage show on hunger and under development.

A stage show was organised on the Kalahandi’s journey from hunger and under development to transformational path of development.

The acting was so alive that made Naveen Patnaik bit emotional and watched the stage show with much enthusiasm. He was also seen praising the artists of Prince Dance Group.

Another angle of his personality was also came to fore. Even though the Covid-19 pandemic is still thick in the air, that did not deter him from going to Kalahandi. Even though he could have inaugurated projects virtually, he preferred to go to Kalahandi and connect with the people directly and ride with development.

This will definitely inspire others including leaders, officials, bureaucrats to connect directly and deliver service to people.
