A deeply saddening incident that reflects poorly on us as a society An elderly woman, who has forgotten even her own name and address, was found sitting alone on a pavement in Bhubaneswar. Some concerned passersby alerted the PCR, and the Bhubaneswar Police responded promptly and reached the spot immediately. If she was accidentally separated from her family, it is unfortunate and understandable. But if she was deliberately abandoned on the roadside by someone, it is truly shameful and heartbreaking. Appreciation to the Bhubaneswar Police for their swift and humane response. Hopefully, she will soon be reunited with her family members. #Odisha

VK Pandian Returns to Public Eye, Hand in Hand With Naveen Patnaik A video of BJD President & former CM Naveen Patnaik holding VK Pandian’s hand while leaving a hospital in Bhubaneswar last night has captured widespread attention. It is their first public appearance together since the 2024 election results. The footage reaffirms the enduring bond between Naveen Patnaik and his trusted confidant of more than 13 years. Despite the BJD’s electoral setback, their relationship remains unshaken, rooted in loyalty and mutual trust. This quiet walk through the hospital corridor sends a clear message: VK Pandian continues to occupy a central place in Naveen Patnaik’s inner circle. The decision to keep him close is deeply personal, not a matter of political calculation. The video effectively signals VK Pandian’s return to the public stage--dispelling doubts and reaffirming that his bond with Naveen Patnaik transcends politics, surviving both victory and defeat. VK Pandian had also stayed by Naveen Patnaik’s side for nearly three weeks at Kokilaben Dhirubhai Ambani Hospital in Mumbai during the Leader of Opposition’s cervical arthritis surgery. #Odisha

Paid ₹1,000 for Illegal Parking Parking on the stretch from Vani Vihar Sq to IDBI Square has been prohibited by BMC. Today, I was fined ₹1,000 for violating the rule after parking my car in front of the Manyavar showroom near Rupali Square. I accepted my mistake and paid the fine without any objection. But my question to BMC: At any given time of the day, hundreds of vehicles are parked on that road in front of Kalyan Jewellers, Pantaloons, Manyavar, H&M, Khimji showrooms Is BMC collecting this ₹1,000 fine from every vehicle that is illegally parked there, or is the enforcement selective? Can BMC clarify these rules for the benefit of everyone? If this rule applies to all, why aren't all illegally parked vehicles being towed to the multi-level parking facility? I was also surprised when the person collecting the fine called me on my phone to ask me to come there. He told me that the traffic police had shared my phone number with him. How was my personal contact information shared, and under what authority? My humble request to Mayor Sulochana Das and BMC Commissioner Rajesh Patil is to clearly communicate the parking rules and ensure they are enforced uniformly. If parking is prohibited on the stretch from Vani Vihar Square to IDBI Square, then the rule should be applied consistently so that no vehicle is allowed to park there--without exception. Uniform enforcement, not selective action, is what ensures fairness and public confidence.

Justified Anger or Brazen Intimidation? A heated confrontation inside a government office has become the talk of Odisha's political and administrative circles. BJP leader and actor Arindam Roy clashed sharply with a senior officer (ABDO), and the viral video is now fuelling a bigger question. Was this a legitimate outburst by a ruling party representative, or a calculated attempt to bully and intimidate an official? Arindam didn't stop at accusations. His aggressive tone, finger-pointing, and blunt remarks like "How much PC are you eating?" left the officer visibly shaken. Democracy certainly has space for protest and strong voices, but there must be a Lakshman Rekha. Government officers are also human beings who deserve basic respect and dignity. This episode is now a test for the police and the administrative system: how they handle this "political hungama" will say a lot about where the lines are drawn in practice. #Odisha

Election Petition A Key Motive Behind Murder? Election Petition Emerges as Common Link Between Former MLA Bikram Panda and Former Mayor Pintu Das in Pitabas Panda Murder Case: SP BERHAMPUR While revealing the motive behind the Pitabas Panda murder case, the Berhampur SP Dr. Saravana Vivek M today stated that investigators have uncovered a political connection between former MLA Bikram Panda and former Mayor Pintu Das, revolving around an election petition. "Politically, an election petition was filed on May 19, 2024, against the sitting MLA of Berhampur," the SP said during a press conference. "The petition was filed in the name of a helper who works at Pintu Das’s residence. In reality, it was filed by Pintu Das himself", SP said. The SP further revealed that the legal expenses and advocate fees for pursuing the election petition were being borne by Bikram Panda. "The understanding between them was that if the MLA were disqualified as a result of the petition, Bikram Panda would contest the Assembly seat in the by-election, and using his influence through corporators, he would help make Pintu Das the Mayor," the SP explained. "This political arrangement and shared motive form a key part of what we have learned so far in our investigation," the SP added. #Odisha #PitabasPanda

Reason Why Floodlight Malfunctioned At Barabati An Odisha Cricket Association (OCA) official has said, "The generator attached to the floodlight malfunctioned, so the lights were off on that tower near the clock tower. We got the back-up generator on. It took some time to change the connection from one generator to the other, which caused the delay".
