Just a day before 18 July Presidential polls in the country, Odisha Chief Minister Naveen Patnaik on Sunday said that NDA’s Presidential candidate Droupadi Murmu will get full support from the Biju Janata Dal. BJD MP Pinaki Misra also extended his full support to Murmu.
In a series of tweets today, Patnaik, who is also the chief of BJD, said, “Addressed all BJD MPs of Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha ahead of the Monsoon Session of Parliament commencing from 18th July. It is indeed a matter of honour and pride for our state that the daughter of Odisha, Murmu has been nominated to the highest office of our country.” “On behalf of the people of Odisha and BJD, we need to extend full support to her candidature in #PresidentialElection on 18th July. During my meeting with the PM on 30th May at New Delhi, I have discussed many issues concerning State’s interest and sought GoI’s support for them,” he tweeted.
In a conversation with ANI, Misra said, “We, as BJD, will ensure that Rakhi sister of our Odisha Chief Minister Naveen Patnaik gets 100 per cent votes from our party in the Presidential polls.” Puri also highlighted about the Odisha Bhawan will be built soon for which land has been allotted in New Delhi.
“Recently, we held discussions with Chief Minister along with a few MPs of our party. A new Odisha Bhawan will be built soon for which land has been allotted in New Delhi. MPs requested Chief Minister to lay its foundation,” he added.
