Budhia had gone out of Odisha along with his mother for over a month or so, triggering a panic situation in the state. He reportedly visited Mumbai and Kodaikanal before returning to Odisha last week.
Budhia has already declared that he won’t return to the Sports Hostel. It is alleged that he and and mother now focus on publicity and endorsement, but don’t bother about his career. Some people blame the state government for ignoring Budhia’s potential and killing his talent.
