Odisha Health Minister Atanu Sabyasachi Nayak faces egg attack
Bhubaneswar:After Food Supplies and Consumer Welfare minister Sanjay Dasburma, Odisha Health Minister Atanu Sabyasachi Nayak faced egg and tomato attack from Congress workers in Deogarh district on Tuesday.
The Congress workers hurled eggs and tomatoes at the health minister’s car at Kurada village while he was on his way to Deogarh after attending a programme in Sambalpur.
“The youth and students are protesting against the state government for failing to provide employment and irregularities in distribution of ration cards under the National Food Security Act (NFSA),” said Itish Pradhan, state unit president of the National Students’ Union of India (NSUI), an affiliate of the Congress.
“Egg pelting will continue in the coming days against the ministers,” said Pradhan.
Odisha Pradesh Congress Committee (PCC) president Prasad Harichandan said the ministers are facing the anger of common people following their bungling in distribution of ration cards.
He said the ruling party workers and law makers have benefited from the NFSA in the state.
However, Biju Janata Dal legislator and the ruling party’s students wing president Byomakesh Ray said the Congress workers are pelting eggs only to make their presence felt in the state after a disastrous defeat in several elections.
Earlier, the food supplies and consumer welfare minister faced egg and tomato attacks for two consecutive days in Ganjam and Puri districts.
Meanwhile, Chhatrapur police on Tuesday arrested three persons for allegedly pelting eggs and tomatoes at Dasburma’s car near Chhatrapur College in Ganjam district on Monday.
The RG Marathon Championship Run 2023 in Goa was a testament to inclusivity. Initially resistant to including persons with disabilities, it eventually featured wheelchair and standing categories, thanks to advocates’ efforts. Participants showed exceptional determination, emphasizing unity in diversity. Despite challenging weather, they demonstrated the power of community support, highlighting the need for accessibility and inclusion in all state-level events in Goa.
Following the marathon, a gathering of differently-abled individuals, predominantly wheelchair users, convened for a celebratory lunch at Barzilla. The event, orchestrated by Mr. Shariq Khan and Mr. Zain Aftab, proprietors of Barzilla, honored the birthday of Sadaf Fatima, who also uses a wheelchair and is Mr. Shariq Khan’s wife.
The lunch featured esteemed guests including the Tourism Minister of Goa, MLA Rohan Khaunte of Porvorim, Social Welfare Minister Subhash Phal Desai, and the State Commissioner for Persons with Disability in Goa, Guruprasad Pawaskar. The event was impeccably hosted by Ms. Falak Fatima and Mr. Adarsh Parashar, offering activities such as Karaoke and Billiards. The youth of Goa exhibited their unwavering support for the community, making the party an unequivocal success.
