I take this occasion to appeal to all sections of society to actively work towards prevention and detection of corruption and extend their whole-hearted support to the anti-corruption efforts of my Government. I also take this occasion to congratulate Odisha Vigilance for its commendable performance in combating corruption in public life and hope that it will further intensify its anti-corruption drive in the service of the people.”

Let us, therefore, work together wholeheartedly to eradicate corruption for the holistic development and benefit of the people of Odisha.”
