“Since my student days I have been a follower of Biju Patnaik and during the days of the Utkal Congress I was the general secretary of the student wing.

“During the time of Biju Patnaik, I was an activist of the Utkal Congress party and impressed with my work, Biju Babu gave me a job at Paradip port. Since that day I have been indebted to him.
