Bhubaneswar: A recent visit by Minister of the Housing and Urban Development (H & UD) department Krushna Chandra Mahapatra to various areas within the Bhubaneswar Municipal Corporation (BMC) has led to swift and impactful actions.
Following his directives, officials have initiated repair works in the Laxmi Sagar area, including the restoration of street lights, which are now fully operational.
In response to public demand, the Minister also prioritized the urgent repair of roads near the Fishery Tank.

During his visit, Mahapatra conducted a thorough inspection of various water bodies under BMC’s jurisdiction, accompanied by Mayor Sulochana Das, MLA Babu Singh, local leader Jagannatha Pradhan, BMC Commissioner Rajesh Pravakar Patil, VC BDA Balwant Singh, and local corporators and communities.
The Minister’s proactive approach has galvanized the BMC into swift action, demonstrating keen responsiveness to community needs and infrastructure upkeep in Bhubaneswar. The far-reaching effects of the Minister’s visit are expected to have a positive impact on the city’s development.
