The Statesman Bhubaneswar
|May 03, 2025
Law Minister Prithiviraj Harichandan on Friday asked the Shree Jagannath Temple Administration, Puri to conduct an internal inquiry on the controversial reports that the idols made for the Digha Jagannath Temple were made with the surplus neem timber from the 2015 Nabakalebar ritual.
The state government has set a target of 14 LMT to be procured in the rabi season. At least 3.37 lakh farmers have already registered themselves to take part in the process and sell their paddy.
Procurement will be made through 965 primary agricultural cooperative societies in 20 districts, said officials after a meeting chaired by Deputy Chief Minister K V Singh Deo on Thursday. Ministers Krushna Chandra Patra, Bibhuti Bhushan Jena, Pradeep Bal Samanta and Suresh Pujari, principal secretaries, Collectors and other officials of various districts took part in the meeting.

Awaiting the grand finale
It is interesting for me to observe how conversation topics with my friends have evolved with our age. Before we reached retirement age our discussions focused on women/relationships, travelling to exotic places, our professional activities, children's future, debates about Obama's birthplace, sports, movies etc. In more recent years, the focus has shifted to health issues, social security benefits, reminiscing about life, existence of God, financial planning in old age and so on.
