JAJPUR,16/11(PPT);Former MLA Pranab Kumar Balabatray started public contact programme in Dharamasal of Jajpur district on Saturday. Pranab Said Giving many false promises during the last general and Assembly elections, the BJP came to power in Odisha and did just the opposite to its assurances in the last 5 months Said Pranab. He Said BJP leaders had given guarantee that 300 units of free power would be provided, but it has turned out to be a hoax. Besides, the BJP had stated that it would pay a Rs 3,500-allowance to the elderly. But now, it has kept a condition that the allowance would only be paid to those who are above 80 years, Pranab said. He Said women of the State have been cheated. The BJP had promised vouchers of Rs 50,000 to every woman in Odisha, but the time period has been extended from two years to five years. Besides, the entire assistance will be paid in 10 installments which will in no way help promote women empowerment, they charged. Alleging that there is no control of the government on the law and order situation, the leaders said no action has so far been taken against the son of the Governor who assaulted a government employee at the Raj Bhavan in Puri. The assault on an army official and his fiancée inside Bharatpur police station points to the extent of deterioration in the law and order situation, they said further. The government has failed to bring prices of potato and onion under control. It has also not initiated any measure to create employment opportunities for lakhs of unemployed youths in the State Addded Pranab.
