BJP did not shy away from misusing government funds in Nupada bypolls. The ruling party does not respect the code of conduct. The administration is turning a blind eye to the posters of the ruling party, but removing the banners and banners of BJJ, which are posted in fairness. Biju Janata Dal today demanded the Chief Electoral Officer to intervene immediately in such a sensitive case. The senior leaders of BJ have submitted a letter of complaint to the CEO’s office today. It has been alleged by BJJ that BJP candidate Mr. Jay Dholakia is using government property for his campaign. BJP campaign posters and banners have been put up on electric poles, sign boards and National Highway No. 353 between Nuapada and Kharia NAC. These banners and hoardings have pictures of Hon’ble Chief Minister Shri Mohan Charan Majhi, Hon’ble Deputy Chief Minister Mrs. Panagi Parida and other BJP leaders.
The Biju Janata Dal has accused it of flagrant misuse of government property and gross violation of election code of conduct. BJJ has demanded immediate removal of all illegal banners and hoardings put up by BJP. Along with this, the BJJ has also presented a strong demand to the CEO to conduct an independent investigation into the circumstances under which the local administrative officials removed the posters and banners that were legally put up by the BJJ. At the time of filing the complaint with the CEO, the BJJ delegation included D Lenin Mohanty, Smt. Sulta Deo, Mr. Mihir Rai, Ila Swaymen, Ritanjali Pradhan, Laksha Mahapatra, Lora Mahapatra and Saku Tripathi. Biju Janata Dal has always been committed to transparent and impartial election process. The party has said that every party and candidate must be careful in the election process.
