My main goal is stop migration of Dadan workers and generate employment in the region, which remains backward even today. I also want to help people in distress. I strongly believe the BJD led by Naveen Patnaik would help us materialize that dream further. I joined the party with that goal without any positional aspiration. But, I will accept whatever responsibilities I get in the party”.

Education remains an area where a lot of work to be done although we have seen tremendous progress in the last decade. Under the leadership of Naveen Patnaik, the State would progress further and we can get more opportunities to carry forward our dream of quality education to all. I joined BJD, as I trust in Naveen Patnaik’s leadership and vision”.
