Chamarulal, agreed that Bhakta won , but his influence is limited to his constituency only. You are absolutely wrong when you say that due to Bhakta Congress won western Orissa seats. 100% wrong.Candidates like Amar Pradhan won by pure chance and luck. Amar was an outsider and cant even speak Sambalpuri.He should thank his stars.Deserving and honest people like Sriballav Panigrahi were ignored due to petty poltics played by corrupt KP Singh Deo.Last but not the least KP should be sacked immediately to salvage some pride.

It is unfortunate that an Anonymous saying that KP Singh deo is a corrupt . Before commenting , appreciate if you can prove with proper justification . Please recollect all the goods done by him when he was the MOS during 80's and now he is doing a lot to the Sports communiy and also in politics. It would be better if you can take back your words
