Bhubaneswar: Biju Janata Dal (BJD) national spokesperson Amar Patnaik has purportedly written a letter to the Head of Psychiatric Department, SCB Medical College & Hospital, Cuttack requesting to immediately provide treatment to Odisha BJP leaders for mental illness which has gone viral on social media platforms.
In his letter, the BJD spokesperson stated, “As a responsible political party, we are deeply concerned about the mental state of some leaders of our rival Odisha BJP. We feel pity for them. Since they are going to lose badly in the 2024 elections they have lost their mental balance. All this is very painful to see. These leaders are Union Minister Dharmendra Pradhan, BJP leader Baijayant Panda, Bhubaneswar MP Aparajita Sarangi, BJP leader Sameer Mohanty. We request you to immediately constitute a medical board with expert doctors and provide necessary psychiatric treatment to these leaders. If they do not agree, a counselling team should be given the responsibility of bringing them to the hospital. We pray to Lord Sree Jagannath to help Odisha BJP leaders to maintain mental balance”.
