Moreover, the youth wing of the party has also questioned the stoic silence of Chief Minister Naveen Patnaik over the case.
“The Chief Minister should reveal his and his party’s stand over the case and axe Mishra immediately. Otherwise, our party workers will also hold protests during his visit to any part of the State,” said Acharya.
Meanwhile, the BJP Yuva Morcha has also requested people of the State to light lamps on the occasion of Diwali for peace to the late Mamita’s soul.
Notably on Wednesday, the district administration in Kalahandi had launched a probe at two hostels of the Mahalinga college.
