'Who are they blackmailing?': Rahul Gandhis dig at BJP-RSS over 'Epstein-Puri picture'
Digital Desk | New Delhi, Oct 21 (IANS) Congress MP Rahul Gandhi on Wednesday took a swipe at the BJP and the RSS over a purported picture of Union Minister Hardeep Singh Puri with tainted US financier Jeffrey Epstein, linking the alleged release of it to US Secretary of State Marco Rubios ongoing India visit, without explicitly referring to the India-US trade deal. In a post on X, Rahul Gandhi wrote, Rubio goes to Mumbai. The US DOJ releases a picture of Epstein and Puri. Dear BJP and RSS workers, which anti-national traitor do you think they're blackmailing? The Congress leaders post came amid questions raised by opposition leaders over Puris alleged meeting with Epstein, the convicted sex offender, after a purported photograph of the two circulated on social media. By juxtaposing the reported release of the picture with Rubios visit, Gandhi appeared to raise questions about the timing of the developments and their possible political implications. Although he did not mention the India-US trade deal in his post, the reference to Rubios visit has added to speculation within the Congress camp, where the issue has also been linked to ongoing discussions between New Delhi and Washington. Earlier, Congress leader Srinivas B.V. had explicitly connected the developments to Rubios visit to Mumbai and the discussions surrounding the India-US trade deal. In his X post, Srinivass remarks directly suggested a possible connection between the developments and trade negotiations. However, neither the timing of the photographs circulation nor the opposition leaders statements establish any link between the matter and the negotiations. Meanwhile, BJP leader Sambit Patra accused Rahul Gandhi, the Leader of the Opposition in the Lok Sabha, of attempting regime change in India following his visit to Vietnam. Speaking on Wednesday in Bhubaneswar, Patra alleged that Gandhi was travelling abroad to receive coaching from financier George Soros on how to destabilise the country. Patras comments followed reports that Gandhi left India for a four-day private trip to Vietnam, amid ongoing protests related to the SIR matter.

Kotia dispute: Ex-Union Minister Pradhan urges political parties to unite for Odishas interests
Digital Desk | Bhubaneswar, Oct 21 (IANS) Former Union Minister and Sambalpur MP, Dharmendra Pradhan, on Wednesday emphasised the need for everyone to come together, irrespective of political affiliations or opinions, to safeguard the rights of Odisha in the Kotia dispute. His statement comes amid renewed tensions over the Kotia region following recent attempts by the neighbouring Andhra Pradesh regime led by Chief Minister Chandrababu Naidu, to hold local body elections in the disputed region. Notably, the Opposition Congress, the Biju Janata Dal (BJD), and the BJP-led state government have been locked in a bitter war of words following Andhra Pradeshs latest incursions into the Kotia region. Sharing his views on the dispute on X, the Sambalpur MP wrote, We all know how important Kotia is for Odisha and the Odia people. Kotia is the identity of Odisha's sovereignty and integrity. As an Odia, the long-standing border dispute over Kotia is certainly a matter of concern. Regardless of party affiliations, there is a need to come together for Odisha's interests and find a collective solution. Highlighting his efforts to resolve the long-standing dispute, Pradhan noted that he had personally visited Kotia village in April 2018, February 2019, and April 2023. Pradhan said that to resolve the issues concerning Andhra Pradesh's interference and the border dispute in the region, he had earlier written letters requesting action to the then Chief Minister of Odisha and current Leader of the Opposition, Naveen Patnaik, on November 18, 2020, and October 31, 2022, as well as to the then Chief Minister of Andhra Pradesh, Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy, on September 22, 2021. The responsibility of political figures is crucial to resolving the issues of this region. Through dialogue, we need to create a cordial atmosphere and find a way towards a solution, Pradhan added. He asserted that the sacrifice and dedication of the great sons of Odisha, including Utkal Gourab Madhusudan Das, Utkalmani Gopabandhu Das, and Vyasa Kabi Fakir Mohan Senapati, to safeguard Odishas geographical boundaries will not go in vain. Our fight for Odia pride will continue. Protecting the unity and integrity of Odisha is the collective responsibility of all of us, Pradhan asserted.

Odisha to showcase chemical, petrochemical investment potential at India Chem 2026
Digital Desk | Bhubaneswar, Oct 21 (IANS) Odisha Chief Minister Mohan Charan Majhi is scheduled to leave for Mumbai on Wednesday to attend India Chem 2026, India's flagship biennial event for the chemicals and petrochemicals industry, which begins on Thursday. According to an official statement, CM Majhi will participate in the inaugural session and the CEO Roundtable, which will be chaired by Union Minister of Chemicals and Fertilisers J.P. Nadda, during his two-day visit to Mumbai. It noted that Chief Minister's visit will focus on attracting fresh investments and strengthening Odisha's position as an emerging industrial destination in the chemical and petrochemical sectors. The State's participation will highlight its industrial strengths, investment-ready infrastructure, progressive policies and growing ecosystem for chemical and petrochemical manufacturing. The programme will provide an important platform for Odisha to engage directly with industry leaders, present new investment opportunities and explore partnerships for the next phase of industrial growth, the state government said in the statement. During the visit, Chief Minister Majhi is scheduled to hold one-to-one meetings with leading representatives of the chemical and petrochemical industries, with discussions planned with more than 20 major companies. These interactions will focus on potential investments, industrial expansion, downstream manufacturing and opportunities to establish new industrial ventures in Odisha. A key highlight of the state's participation will be a presentation on coal gasification project, an emerging area of industrial opportunity for Odisha. The state is also likely to announce the establishment of a dedicated, large-scale chemical industrial park as part of its efforts to strengthen the industrial ecosystem, promote value addition, and attract investments across the chemical, petrochemical, plastics, and packaging segments. Odisha will participate alongside Rajasthan, Andhra Pradesh, Gujarat and Tamil Nadu, reflecting the growing importance of states in shaping India's chemical and petrochemical manufacturing landscape. The event will provide Odisha with an opportunity to demonstrate its capabilities and strengthen engagement with domestic and international industry stakeholders. While states such as Maharashtra, Gujarat, and others have established themselves as major chemical and petrochemical hubs over several decades, Odisha is positioning itself as a leading investment destination in the chemical and petrochemical sector, leveraging its rich resource base, industrial infrastructure, and supportive policy framework. The state's established strengths in mining and metallurgy provide a strong foundation for expanding into downstream chemical and petrochemical industries, promoting value addition, and attracting investments in higher-value manufacturing. Speaking about state's participation at India Chem 2026, Hemant Sharma, Additional Chief Secretary of Industries department, said, Odisha has a strong industrial foundation, and we are now focused on expanding our presence in high-potential sectors such as chemicals and petrochemicals. Our participation at India Chem 2026 will provide an opportunity to engage directly with leading companies, present the state's investment opportunities and explore partnerships for future growth. With our industrial infrastructure, progressive policies and resource advantages, we are working to build a competitive ecosystem for chemical and petrochemical industries. The proposed dedicated large chemical industrial park and our focus on coal gasification will further strengthen this effort and open up new avenues for investment, value addition and employment generation, he added.

BJD files police complaint over deepfake videos targeting senior leader Sujata Rout
Digital Desk | Bhubaneswar, Oct 18 (IANS) The Opposition Biju Janata Dal (BJD) on Sunday lodged a complaint for creation and circulation of Al-generated, deepfake and voice-cloned videos 'defaming', 'degrading' and targeting former bureaucrat and senior party leader Sujata Rout Karthikeyan by a social media account on Instagram and Facebook. Strongly condemning the circulation of videos against senior BJD leader, the party demanded in its complaint the registration of an FIR in the matter, a thorough investigation and strict legal action against those responsible. The complaint was submitted by BJD leader Amrita Mishra at Capital Police Station in Bhubaneswar against the unknown operators of the social media account Odianka Chhata on Instagram and Facebook. According to the complaint, videos allegedly uploaded on October 18 used artificial intelligence and voice-cloning technology to circulate fabricated content. One such video allegedly portrayed Sujata Rout Karthikeyan threatening the Principal of Kendrapara Autonomous College in connection with student union elections. The said content is entirely fabricated and has been manufactured with the sole intent to mislead the public, create discord, and lower the dignity and reputation of Sujata Rout Karthikeyan in the eyes of the public, as she belongs to the district of Kendrapara. The said content is solely created to politicise the matter as BJD has won in almost all colleges of Kendrapara, Mishra alleged in the complaint. The party urged the police to immediately identify those operating the accounts, preserve the digital evidence and conduct a forensic examination of the content to establish its authenticity and trace those involved. The complaint also sought steps to obtain relevant information from Meta Platforms, which owns Facebook and Instagram, through lawful procedures. The party urged the police to take necessary measures to prevent further circulation of the allegedly defamatory material. The BJD alleged that the misuse of artificial intelligence to fabricate statements, malign a woman leader and mislead the public was a serious matter requiring immediate intervention. It called for an impartial investigation and accountability under the law. The party demanded strict action against all persons found involved in creating, uploading or circulating the alleged deepfake content. The development comes amid heightened political activity following the student union elections held across Odisha on October 15.
The festive fervor of Durga Puja is at its peak across the capital city and the entire state, with Maha Ashtami being celebrated with immense grandeur and devotion. On this auspicious day, Goddess Durga manifested in her serene and radiant Mahagauri form, drawing an overwhelming multitude of devotees to various puja mandaps and shakti peethas [] The post Maha Ashtami Celebrations Peak in Bhubaneswar: Devotees Flock in Thousands for Mahagauri Darshan and Sandhi Puja appeared first on Pragativadi I Latest Odisha News in English I Breaking News .

Odisha CM hails peaceful campus polls, urges student leaders to counter baseless propaganda
Digital Desk | Bhubaneswar, Oct 18 (IANS) Chief Minister Mohan Charan Majhi on Sunday called upon student leaders who emerged victorious in the recent campus polls held across colleges and universities in Odisha to play a key role in building a prosperous and developed state by countering negative propaganda by disruptive forces with positive messages. The Chief Minister made the call while attending a grand ceremony, Young Leaders Conclave, organised at the Kataka Indoor Stadium on Sunday. Majhi met the student leaders and congratulated the representatives who secured landslide victories in the students union elections held on October 15. Targeting the previous Biju Janata Dal-led state government, the CM wrote in a post on X following the event, The previous government had kept the elections suspended for nearly a decade since 2017, completely putting the democratic process on campuses on hold. Majhi also pointed out that the top leaders of the then ruling party, who had begun their political careers through student movements, as well as the then Higher Education Minister, remained silent and did not raise their voices against their own leaders decision, despite their background in student politics. When we resolved to hold the elections, pressure was exerted on us to postpone the polls by citing misleading information such as the atmosphere in the country is not favourable or Gen Z is unhappy. However, we fulfilled our promise and successfully conducted the elections across the state in an extremely peaceful and orderly manner, said CM Majhi. He said the student community delivered a fitting reply to the previous regime by conducting peaceful polls, proving that campus violence was merely a dark chapter of the past. Above all, the historic victory of the ABVP in Odisha, just as in Delhi University, has proved that the youth stand with Modi jis development policies, the CM added. While advising the student leaders, he said that this victory is not a matter of arrogance, but the beginning of an important duty. Being a leader does not mean limiting oneself to politics; it also means working to resolve the problems faced by ordinary students in areas such as education, hostels and sports, while acting as a bridge to ensure that the benefits of government welfare schemes reach every student, the Chief Minister noted. He also advised the student leaders to coordinate with college authorities to keep campuses free from violence and substance abuse. I call upon all young representatives to play a leading role in building a prosperous and developed Odisha by countering, through positive messages, the baseless propaganda of disruptive forces attempting to weaken the countrys constitutional system, and by upholding the ideals of Knowledge, Character and Unity, the Chief Minister stated.
