BHUBANESWAR: Two days after leader minister Naveen Patnaik wrote a letter to Prime Minister Narendra Modi searching for to inform hockey as nationwide game, opposition BJP and Congress on Friday criticised Naveen for no longer notifying ‘Bande Utkala Janani..’ as state anthem of Odisha.
Bande Utkala Janani is an Odia patriotic poem written through Kantakabi Laxmikanta Mohapatra written earlier than Odisha turned into a province in 1936.
What is being noticed as a counter to Naveen’s demand, BJP spokesperson Golak Mohapatra stated Naveen must right away be certain a gazette notification for Bande Utkala Janani as state anthem.
“Naveen is repeatedly in energy for past greater than 18 years leading a regional birthday party. Despite that it's sudden he has completed nothing to inform the state anthem. It displays his dedication against Odisha,” Golak informed newshounds.
“It’s sad and unfortunate since there have been consistent demands from quite a lot of quarters to inform it as state anthem,” Golak stated.
Congress MLA Tara Prasad Bahinipati stated it's for the house division to factor this kind of notification. As minister in-charge of house division, the manager minister must take steps, he stated.
Industrialist-politician Baijayant Panda tweeted in Odia expressing marvel that Bande Utkala Janani was no notified as state anthem and demanded this kind of notification must be issued quickly.
BJD MP and spokesperson Kalikesh Singhdeo stated the federal government would surely examine and do whatever it must to verify Bande Utkala Janani will get its proper admire.
An outfit, Ame Odia, staged demonstration at Master Canteen Square urgent for the demand.
Notably, the politics over “notification” has intensified after Naveen wrote a letter to the Prime Minister on June 20, expressing marvel and surprise that hockey was by no means notified as nationwide game. Union sports activities minister had reacted through announcing there was little need for an “authentic proclamation to like hockey.”
