AN OPEN LETTER TO MR NAVEEN PATTNAYAK

ANSWER MR NA-VEEN-TUGHLAQ - WHERE IS BIJU BABU'S UNFULFILLED DREAMS AND YOUR SHILPONNAT ORISSA??????????????


Dear Mr chief minister,
As you can not understand Oriya(the privilege of 4 crore Oriyas to have such a CM!) I preferred to write in English. I am not such an acclaimed and proficient writer like you to be flowery in words. This may be my advantage also.

When you entered the Oriya political arena, you mesmerized us with the dreams of industrialization, development and an unemployment free Orissa. “MAA KU SAMMAN HATA KU KAMA-BJD RA ANYA NAM”- sounded so heart touching that you became the messiah for the starved Orissa. On the first stoke you became an MP, a central cabinet minister and chief minister on your first entry to the state assembly. What a luck Naveen babu! You are born with a silver spoon!

Whenever you found anything that has the slightest potential of tarnishing your surf-excel image- you sacked IAS officers, dismissed ministers and denied people with tickets. As far as your party and way of functioning is concerned, you might be called Mr unpredictable but I am least concerned with it. However, if it is the development of Orissa, I have every right to ask as a concerned Oriya. Where is the dream of developed Orissa that you sew in 1997.????

43 odd MOUs but not a single project in operation- Mr Naveen who offered you the liesence to sell the minerals of Orissa at the price of vegetables to foreign multinationals? The harilloot of natural resource means a skeletal Orissa after 30 years. Is your economics so bad to count the outcome of such exploitation??? Development can never be done by ignoring the the means of living of indegenous people. You are forcing our next generation to starve without food and job with this mindless extravaganza.

POSCO and Priyabrata-POSCO is your dream project and you subverted all the laws to allow all the favours to this steel giant. But where is POSCO now? Out of the 4,000 acres that is required for plant, 3567 acres are Government land. And, for rest 400 acres , you had an official dacaiot called Priyabrata Pattnayak. Why the POSCO steel plant is in papers still now???

Biju babu's unfulfilled dreams: Every time you addresss a political rally, Biju babu's unfulfilled dreams become alive from nowhere. I have no idea whether you were present near the death bed when the epitome of oriya self esteem breathed his last to have the knowledge of his dreams and unfulfilled aspirations. However, my own analysis says that if you are at least sympathetic to the values of late Biju babu, you could not have  dared to sell OTM at scrap rate.

Secularism -a nightmare now- After the kandhamal riot, the image of Orissa changed drastically across the world. The land known for it religious tolerance and harmony for centuries, witnessed the worst communal riot during your tenure. Instead of taking any precautionary step, you prefered to remain silent. Your mystic silence is going to write a disastrous history for Orissa.

Andhra dadagiri and your callous approach: Be it mahendratanaya or Vanshadhara, we the people of Orissa are the sufferers of Andhra's dadagiri in every intrastate water dispute. You have made Andhra previleged by your timid and callous approach. Andhra does not need any extra effort to deny the legitimate rights of Orissa as they have a close friend named Naveen Pattnayak.

Naxal problem- Naxal problem reached its highest altitude during your reign. They can now dare to kill cops at Nayagarh- a mere 80 km distance from state capital. How indifferent can a leader may be???

Write and forget- Every time Orissa is neglected, you come with your popular phrase-' I have written a letter regarding it to center'- Mr CM development is not all about writing letters. If it is the case, then better hire 2-3 good letter writers and quit your seat.

Mass unemployment: Your employment promises are the sharpest betrayal for the Orissa youth. No new jobs, no vision, no planning for self employment- it's enough Mr CM. Perhaps you are of the perception that, to secure your seat you need an Orissa where unemployment is the stark reality and dreams are salable.

Law and order- In your reign senior IPS officers are caught red handed while helping criminals. Senior IAS officers are involved in murder and if I am not wrong many people in Orissa think that gangsters like Raja, Hyder and Tito rule the state. The law and order is so precarious that, even Delhi police did not wish to inform you before nabbing Brijesh singh at Bhubaneswar.

Unsafe for women- During 2000 Election you hyped the "Anjana Mishra rape case" and got voluminous support as a woman sympathizer. What happened now? Even a person who was at a constitutionally respectable post like speaker is being charged with sexual harassment. When the state legislature is not safe for women, a layman can easily assume the condition through out the state.

Mr chief minister- You have played with the Oriya sentiment according to your wish. It's enough now. You have still 8 months left. Make the necessary corrections otherwise remain prepared to be paid in your own coin....... Parambrahma Tripathy

This is a very good write up. I am agree with you. This is not only Naveen Pattnaik but it is the people of orissa. You can see the recent result of the election. Perhaps people of orissa is happy with his administration. What a joke. What you can expect? Whom you can trust? You are right after few years, people of orissa will fight with each other for food, forget about other things.
