He does not know history, geo, eco of Odisha: BJD
Salipur: Congress Vice President Rahul Gandhi hit back at Odisha Chief Minister Naveen Patnaik for calling the national party "corrupt", saying it is BJD which is responsible for a series of scams in the state.
"The funds given to Odisha for welfare schemes do not reach beneficiaries. Most of the money is being misappropriated mid way," Gandhi said during a Congress rally at Bhatapada village near Salipur town in Cuttack district. "No previous government had ever given such a huge amount of money for the state. I am told Rs 5,000 crore is still lying unspent here," he said.
Stung by Rahul Gandhi's criticism of Odisha government, ruling BJD said the Congress vice-president knew nothing about the state and that he was only mouthing the words of his party leaders. "He (Rahul Gandhi) does not know anything about the history, geography and economics of the state (Odisha)," BJD vice president and state health minister Damodar Rout said.
