On the other hand, senior Congress leader Narasingha Mishra today stated that till now it is not known why the Odisha Health Minister Naba Das was murdered and there is suspicion over Crime Branch.

The senior BJP leader further said that the motive of the crime is always important and until it is not found, justice will not be delivered.

Senior Congress leader Narasingha Mishra said, “He (Gopal Das) along with his niece was going to Naba babu, seeking help to get a job. It can’t be denied that during their visits something wrong might have happened."

Leader of Opposition (LoP) and senior BJP leader Jayanarayan Mishra has again trained his guns at the ruling BJD and alleged, “The person who had given 'Supari' to Gopal Das to eliminate the minister had also assured that no action will be taken against him.”

A State government-constituted medical board comprising four experts from the SCB Medical College and Hospital had submitted its report about Gopal’s mental health on February 5. 

He will offer floral tributes to his father and the legendary Biju Patnaik at the Biju Patnaik Park and also join the inauguration ceremony of the iconic Dakota, the plane of Biju Babu. 

As per reports, the ADJ court rejected the revision petition on technical grounds after a lower court rejected the same petition earlier.

The investigation into the Naba Das murder case is in its last stage. Accused Gopal Das has confessed to having killed minister Das over personal vendetta.

The saffron party is taking such a step in protest against the alleged police excesses on Bharatiya Janata Yuva Morcha (BJYM) activists while they were marching towards the Odisha Assembly on Tuesday over alleged deteriorating law and order situation particularly following the murder of minister Naba Das. 

Odisha BJP President Samir Mohanty alleged that some people with vested interests created trouble and some police officers attacked BJP activists to please and prove their loyalty to the state government.

Hundreds of supporters of BJP Yuva Morcha flooded the Lower PMG Square and took out a mega rally in protest against the alleged lawlessness in the State.

Making a statement in Odisha Assembly, Chief Minister Naveen Patnaik said the state government has decided to seek the help of the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) of the United States of America for behavioural analysis of the main accused Gopal Das.

Congress MLA Santosh Singh Saluja alleged that even so many days after the brutal murder of Naba Das, the hands of the Crime Branch are empty as there is still mystery whether the killing was due to political or business rivalry.

The Opposition BJP and Congress have smelled something fishy in the probe and suspected political or personal or business rivalries might be the reason behind the assassination of the minister.

While participating in the discussion yesterday, LoP Mishra had levelled serious allegations by stating that four days prior to the murder of health minister Naba Das, there was a meeting between 5T secretary and BJD organisation secretary at Naveen Niwas.
