BJD alleges rise in Maoist activities in Odisha's mineral- rich districts
The Political and Business Daily
|April 13, 2025
OPPOSITION BJD on Saturday alleged that there has been a rise in Maoist activities in Odisha's mineral-rich districts of Dhenkanal, Jajpur and Keonjhar.
The claim was made by former minister Priti Ranjan Ghadai at a press conference in the BJD's state headquarters Sankha Bhawan.
"Over the past few months, media reports have consistently highlighted this issue. Armed Maoists are reportedly moving around, recruiting people from local areas and forcefully collecting money," Ghadai alleged.
BJD's allegation is in contradiction with Chief Minister Mohan Charan Majhi's claim that there has been a substantial decline in Naxal activities in the state.
