Bhubaneswar: BJD MP Prashant Nanda raised the issue of more rail and road connectivity in Odisha saying it will lead to development in the tribal areas.
Raising this issue during the Zero Hour, the Rajya Sabha Member from Odisha said, “The Left Wing Extremism cannot be eliminated through the barrels of the guns, instead development is needed.”
Nanda urged the Central Government to sanction the 150 km long rail link between Malkangiri and Bhadrachalam and a four-lane road connectivity from the neighbouring states.
