Bhubaneswar: Following demands from the Student Congress of Odisha for resignation of Anant Narayan Jena from the Bhubaneswar Municipal Corporation (BMC) Mayor post while alleging the Mayor’s involvement in a sex tape which has gone viral on social networking sites, Jena last evening filed an FIR against Chhatra Congress president Itish Pradhan and niankhunta.com proprietor Pradeep Pandey at the Capital police station last evening.

To the amusement of many onlookers, the Bhubaneswar Mayor sat on a dharna at the Capital police station demanding immediate arrest of the Chhatra Congress president and niankhunta.com proprietor. However, Jena withdrew the dharna after assurances were given that action will be taken against Itish Pradhan and Pradeep Pandey.
