In his address to the people, Pandian said Chief Minister Naveen Patnaik believes in deeds and not in words.
He indirectly attacked the Union Minister by saying “A Union Minister is opposing the Biju Swasthya Kalyana Yojana and is speaking badly about it.” He accused the Union Minister that “he is only known for his words and not deeds. With BSKY cards, poor people can go to big corporate hospitals and get modern treatment. The poor people of the state have got this because of the Chief Minister.” Pandian said that the Biju Swasthya Kalyana Yojana is a milestone scheme launched by Chief Minister Naveen Patnaik that is helping lakhs of people get quality treatment.
