“Odisha is bestowed with natural resources and has immense potential to become one of the most developed states in the country. By developing the tourism industry, youth of the State can be employed. The people of Odisha are very skilled and talented. But due to lack of political will, the development of Odisha has not been proper. Despite having everything in Odisha, it has not been able to develop in that proportion. Looking at today’s Odisha, there was more development to come,” Jaishankar said adding that therefore the BJP government should be formed in Odisha.
The Minister also said that PM Modi’s guaranty is evident in the country and outside the borders of the neighbouring countries as well.
