Sikta Pati after joining Biju Janata Dal on Saturday

Bhubaneswar (Odisha) [India], Nov 24 (ANI): Former Rajya Sabha MP, Pyarimohan Mohapatra's daughter, Sikta Pati joined the Biju Janta Dal (BJD) party on Saturday in the presence of Odisha Chief Minister Naveen Patnaik at his residence.
Pati was earlier appointed as the Secretary-General of the Odisha Jan Morcha, after the death of Mohapatra.
Mohapatra had passed away on August 23, 2017, at the age of 77 at Mumbai's Hinduja Hospital, after suffering from a certain lungs disease.
Once called the 'Chanakya of Odisha politics', Mohapatra was suspended from the Biju Janata Dal following an alleged coup attempt against CM Naveen Patnaik in June 2012, while the chief minister was out of the country.
He then soon resigned as BJD party's Parliamentary party leader in Rajya Sabha on August 4th 2012, and formed a new party "Odisha Jana Morcha" on April 10th 2013. (ANI)

“Govt must clarify LPG reserves, supply timelines to public

"The government should clarify - what is the amount of reserves in our country presently, how much is left, how much can be consumed over how many days, and by when are they expecting that the LPG supply would be normalised. I believe the government is having talks; the people of this nation also need to be told about the current situation. If there is a crisis of energy, then by when the government plans to resolve it should also be clarified to the people, especially to the common man," he said.
