Finally some concrete development in Mayurbhanj! The Rs 10,000 crore industrial complex could be a game-changer for local employment. Hope they ensure environmental safeguards though - we've seen too many projects damage tribal lands in the name of progress.

As someone from Odisha, I'm thrilled to see women empowerment schemes like Subhadra Yojana working well. 17 lakh lakhpati didis is no small achievement! 👏 But government should also focus on quality education - +2 college is good but we need more degree colleges.

Rs 420 crore projects in Mayurbhanj is commendable, but I hope the implementation is transparent. We've seen many announcements in past that remained on paper. The '36 for 36' plan sounds ambitious - hope it's not just another slogan.

The MSP increase to Rs 3100 is a big relief for farmers! But government must ensure proper procurement too. Many farmers in Odisha still sell below MSP to middlemen. Industrial growth is good, but don't neglect our annadatas.

Naming stadium after Mahapurush Dharanidhar Nayak is a nice gesture to honor local heroes. But hope they maintain it properly - many such memorials become neglected after inauguration. The Rs 10 lakh SHG support is revolutionary for rural women!

Good to see focus on tribal-dominated Mayurbhanj. Hope the industrial projects don't displace tribal communities. Development should be inclusive - the 'last person' approach mentioned by CM is promising. Let's see ground reality in coming months! 🤞
