Seeking bride, Odisha divyang youth submits application to Collector during grievance camp 

A differently-abled youth in Odisha turned up at the grievance redressal camp and sought the intervention of the district Collector to find a match for him. The incident reported from Angul district has struck an emotional chord with one and all present at the camp. 

As per the report, a Collector’s redressal grievance camp was organised at Chhendipada Panchayat Samiti office on Monday. Among others, there was Sanjib Mohapatra, a divyang youth from Nuapada village under Chhendipada block with a unique grievance. 

In his application, Sanjib stated that his elderly parents are not able to search for a match for him. And, his elder brother is living separately. So he is facing a lot of problems in his daily life. Basically, there is none to cook food for him. This is why he is in need of a life partner. 

"Since I am a divyang, parents are reluctant to give marry off their daughters with me. So please search for a match for me from any ashram in Angul district," he appealed to the Collector. 

“My parents are no longer able to cook food due to their advancing age. I have requested the government to find a life partner for me,” he said. 
Neither the Collector nor any administrative official could be contacted for their reactions.
