Odisha's Leader of Opposition (LoP) Naveen Patnaik on Saturday (November 29, 2025) claimed the Supplementary Budget presented by Odisha Chief Minister Mohan Charan Majhi lacked any vision and would push the State towards a fiscal deficit situation.
Chief Minister Mohan Charan Majhi presented a Supplementary Budget of ₹17,440 crore in the assembly on Friday (November 28, 2025).
"The BJP Government's Supplementary Budget presented in the Assembly is dashing the hopes of people. There is no major scheme for infrastructure projects and lacks any vision," Mr. Patnaik claimed in a X post.
Mr. Patnaik said that while administrative expenses are being curtailed, Odisha's debt burden is increasing.
"There is nothing in the Supplementary Budget other than ₹900 crore allocated for the Works Department and some urban infrastructure projects," Mr. Patnaik said.
