Farmers' protest: Odisha govt forms inter-ministerial committee

The Odisha government on Monday announced the constitution of an inter-ministerial committee to discuss the demands of agitating farmers even as their 'padyatra' reached the entry points of the state capital.

Finance Minister S B Behera, who will head the inter-ministerial committee, appealed to the farmers to have faith in the government and return to their villages.


"Odisha government stands committed to the cause of farmers' welfare. The inter-ministerial committee will discuss the demands of farmers," he told reporters.

Farmers Break Cordon To Enter Bhubaneswar For Mega Convention

Thousands of farmers marching towards the Capital city for the mega convention in Lower PMG seemed unstoppable today. The attempts of police to foil the rally and prevent the farmers from entering Bhubaneswar failed to dampen their spirits to continue the march for the convention organised under the aegis of Naba Nirman Krushak Sangathan (NNKS) demanding price, prestige and pension.

Despite imposition of Sec 144 in Tamando area on the outskirts of Bhubaneswar, hundreds of farmers managed to break police cordon and entered Bhubaneswar to join the congregation.
