Date:

Even the generators failed, bringing much embarrassment to the state of Odisha today. Punishing the IDCO or Tata Power officials won’t undo the blunder.

President Droupadi Murmu continued to speak for 9 minutes from 11:56 AM to 12:05 PM in complete darkness, which raised serious questions on the hollow claims of world class facilities in Odisha.
