After getting marginalised further on the public arena, former BJD strategist Pyari Mohan Mohapatra has finally formed a political party on the name of Odisha Janmorcha Party this morning. While launching the political outfit, Pyari expressed confidence that his party would win 80-85 seats in the coming Assembly elections in Odisha.
“We want to establish a poverty-free, corruption-free, liquor-free and fearless Odisha by ousting Naveen Patnaik, who has been ruling the state for over 13 years. The Odidha Janmorcha Party will hold its first meeting in Rourkela on April 17. We are the only alternative to Naveen Patnaik,” said Pyari Mohan Mohapatra. Pyari refused to reveal his plans of contesting the polls.
