Balasore: Union Minister Dharmendra Pradhan has lashed out at the ruling-BJD for calling late Balasore MLA Madan Mohan Dutta a ‘defunct transformer’. Condemning the remark by BJD leader Kuna Tripathy, Pradhan maintained that such an irresponsible and insensible comment is one of the many shreds of evidence which points that ego has completely consumed the party.

“Of course in politics, we do find a difference of opinion between the parties, but such statements only show that this party lacks virtue. People will give them a befitting reply.

However, after the BJP came down heavily, Tripathy later clarified that his statements were misinterpreted. “I had said that in order to ensure development of Balasore, CM Naveen is sending a transformer and he is our party candidate. And if a defunct transformer comes to power, development can not be fast-paced. I have not been disrespectful to any person,” he said.

Wife of the late MLA Madan Dutta is shattered with statements coming from the ruling party members. “After Ranendra Pratap Swain termed my husband’s demise as an opportunity for BJD, I expected some compassion from CM Naveen, but he too remained silent,” she said.
