Odisha CM Naveen Patnaik to launch Samalei project today

Odisha Chief Minister Naveen Patnaik is set to inaugurate the Samalei project in Sambalpur on Saturday. The project encompasses the peripheral development of the shrine, the creation of a heritage corridor, provision of amenities for pilgrims, enhanced access to the temple, and the development of the Mahanadi riverfront.

Chief Minister Naveen Patnaik expressed gratitude to those who voluntarily relinquished their lands for the Samalei project, emphasizing the enduring blessings of Maa Samaleswari for the people of Odisha. Despite challenges posed by COVID, the project has been completed in record time.

The inauguration follows the Parikrama Project in Puri, with the state government investing over Rs 200 crore in the Samalei project, focusing on the beautification and development of the Maa Samaleswari temple in western Odisha, covering an area of approximately 40 acres.

Previously, Chief Minister Naveen Patnaik participated in rituals for the Shreemandir Parikrama project in Puri, inaugurated on January 17, aiming to enhance the visual appeal and surroundings of the iconic Jagannath Temple.
