Naveen blames govt for lapses, Rahul seeks review
The New Indian Express Sambalpur
|June 30, 2025
LEADER of Opposition and BJD president Naveen Patnaik slammed the state government over its alleged failure to control the crowd which resulted in the death of three devotees outside the Gundicha Temple early on Sunday.
"Today's stampede, occurring just a day after the abysmal failure of crowd management during the Rath Yatra that left hundreds injured, exposes the government's glaring incompetence in ensuring a peaceful festival for devotees," Naveen wrote on X.
Naveen said eyewitnesses report that the initial response to this horrific tragedy came from the devotees' relatives with no government machinery present to manage the surging crowd. This highlights a shocking lapse of duty, he stated.

The Alpha School Project: A Daring Innovation
The Alpha Schools enterprise is a highly innovative experiment in school education in the US that commenced in 2014 based essentially on the use of AI. It is a bold departure from the traditional. Its essential features focus on personalised learning, efficiency, and holistic development. Founded in Austin, Texas, the Alpha School challenges the conventional modelwhere students endure lengthy lectures across fragmented subjects-by reallocating time to AI-powered learning and essential life skills. This for-profit private institution is crafting footprints in other cities. It also plans potential charter school integrations for broader access. It has at the same time sparked a debate: Is it a transformative force or a fleeting experiment?
