TNI Bureau: Prime Minister Narendra Modi while addressing a public meeting today in Odisha’s Kandhamal district raised the Puri Jagannath Temple’s Ratna Bhandar issue and attacked Chief Minster Naveen Patnaik.
The ornaments of the Ratna Bhandar were counted 45 years ago. It was opened 40 years ago. But the key is now missing for the last six years and you all have the rights to know about it. The State government says that it has got a duplicate key of the Ratna Bhandar. Why the duplicate key was made and was Ratna Bhandar ever opened with the duplicate key, asked Modi.
A commission was also set up in this regard but the report of the commission was not brought to the public domain. Why is Naven Patnaik’s government is silent over the issue and whose sin they want to cover up, the MP asked while promising that if the BJP forms government in Odisha, it will increase the value and importance of the Ratna Bhandar and take care of it.
The Prime Minister further took a dig at the Odisha Chief Minister saying the CM does not know even the names of all districts of the state. He also gave a challenge to Patnaik to write the names of all the districts of Odisha and their headquarters on a piece of paper.
The Chief Minister who does not know the names of your districts, can he understand your pain, Modi asked while urging the people to give BJP five years and he promised to make Odisha the number one state in the country.
Such an insensitive government should not be here. Due to the indifference of the Odisha government, the tourism has declined, claimed the PM while assuring that tourism will be developed when the BJP government comes.
