The delegation that met the Prime Minister included Leader of Opposition Bhupinder Singh, senior party leaders Prasad Harichandan.
Meanwhile, senior BJD leader and Panchayati Raj minister Kalpataru Das said, "The Congress leaders should have asked the Prime Minister how much financial package others states are getting and their utilisation certificates. Odisha's utilisation of funds is far more than other states."
Earlier, on Friday, the OPCC president and other Congress leaders had met Finance Minister P Chidambaram in this regard.
Patnaik had also submitted a memorandum to President Pranab Mukherjee during the latter's visit to the state on Wednesday.
"Our people have waited patiently for long, but by now 22 of 30 districts have become affected by acute Maoist violence, which is largely caused by development and governance deficits," the memorandum, submitted to Prime Minister and Finance Minister, says.
The memorandum also noted that Odisha's per capita plan outlay is much less than that of developed states like Karnataka, Gujarat, Punjab, Maharashtra and stressed on the need to increase the Plan size significantly.
"In these circumstances, special financial dispensation for addressing Odisha's backwardness becomes imperative. A substantial financial package on the lines allocated recently by the Central Government for Bihar and Bundelkhand region needs to be replicated for Odisha also," the memorandum says.
