Ignoring Sambalpuri culture a sign of disrespect by state govt, says Rohit
The New Indian Express Sambalpur
|August 10, 2025
FORMER minister and district BJD president Rohit Pujari on Saturday came down heavily on the state government, accusing it of showing blatant disrespect towards Sambalpuri culture by ignoring its representation during the inauguration of the ongoing handloom exhibition in Bhubaneswar.
Expressing strong resentment over reports that the handloom exhibition, being organised at Janata Maidan in Bhubaneswar, failed to mention Sambalpuri sarees and the traditional Bandha art in the Odisha handloom map, Pujari said the omission had deeply hurt the sentiments of people of Western Odisha, who take pride in their language, art and culture.
