Dear Muku Bhai ( Dharmendra Pradhan),

Namaskar.

?? You have forgotten the fact that it’s Hon’ble Odisha CM Naveen Patnaik who took the decision to empower the Sarpanches with Collector Power in the battle against Covid-19, in April 2020.

?? It was followed by the Modi Government a few days later.

?? CM Naveen Patnaik believes in taking the Opposition into confidence if they play a constructive role.

?? But, no sane person on this earth would like to deal with worthless, reckless and shameless opposition leaders like Lekhashree, Golak Mohapatrra and Irasish Acharya.

?? Unfortunately, these leaders are loyal to you and enjoy your blessings, support and confidence. If you continue to have such coterie, I fear even your valuable suggestions won’t be taken seriously.

?? Whether floating global tenders for procuring Covid Vaccines from abroad or forming teams to monitor Covid Management at the grassroots level, Odisha continues to lead the Covid Battle.

?? Whether setting up RT-PCR Labs at various districts, coming up with SOP on Oxygen Management at Hospitals, hiring empty Oxygen cylinders on rent, adding more Covid hospitals with ICU and Ventilators, Odisha stays ahead and draws accolade and appreciation.

?? Your concerns are good. Your suggestions are praiseworthy. But, CM Naveen Patnaik and his Government are steps ahead in this battle. May be these suggestions will help CMs of UP, Bihar, MP and Karnataka more.

Regards,
Subrat
