Dhenkanal: 5T Initiatives and Nabin Odisha Chairman Kartik Pandian has lashed out at people who oppose development works and always try to hinder transformation.
Speaking at the launching ceremony of various developmental works at Joranda in Dhenkanal, Kartik Pandian said there are many people who want to take credit for their work and there are some people who try to hinder developmental work so that the credit does not go to the doer. There are very few people in the world who work with the intention of service and not for credit and among them, one important personality is our beloved Chief Minister Naveen Patnaik.
He said that Chief Minister Naveen Patnaik sent him to Joranda on 29th May this year to interact with you and know the requirements for the development of the Mahima Gadi. We had a detailed discussion and after that you all visited Bhubaneswar three times including to the Chief Minister’s Office and Naveen Niwas. Based on the suggestions and advice received from you, the Chief Minister has granted more than Rs 150 crore for the transformation of Joranda Pitha. While the project cost is of Rs 112 crore, other expenses will take the cost to around Rs 160 crore.
There are some people who oppose good work. Here also some people tried to hinder the development by writing letters to the CMO opposing the development and questioning the expenses and benefits. But our beloved Chief Minister Naveen Patnaik, who very much loves and respects the Mahima Dharma, said that the Mahima Dharma, born in Odisha, gives the world a good message of selfless service. We need to further the cause of the Mahima Dharma and with this intension approved the project.
Pandian said, along with the Joranda Mahima Gadi, the Chief Minister has approved the development of all the 81 Mahima Pithas of the state with an expenditure of Rs 800 lakhs. There will be no dearth of funds for development of Mahima shrines anywhere in Odisha. Our Chief Minister is a symbol of the message as given by the Mahima Dharma – Simplicity, Transparency, Equality and Selfless service.
