4 persons are running BJP in Odisha, says BJD leader Prasanna Acharya

Senior BJD leader Prasanna Acharya slammed the ruling BJP by alleging that as many as four persons are running the government in Odisha.

While addressing a party programme at Rairakhol in Sambalpur, Acharya said that while only Naveen Patnaik was running BJD, there are four governments in the BJP.

According to Acharya, one leader in New Delhi, the Chief Minister and the other two leaders are running the BJP government in Odisha.

“These two leaders are their friends and hence I cannot take their names. Moreover, work is undertaken in the government after order comes from these four leaders. Hence, many files have been lying static before the State government for three months,” said Acharya.

However, no reactions were received from the BJP in response to the allegations of Acharya.
