Odisha BJP neta picked up for 'questioning Naveen Patnaik aide VK Pandian'
Odisha police detained BJP worker Sangram Patra for questioning the access granted to social media influencer Kamiya Jani at the Jagannath temple in Puri. Patra's video expressed dismay over Jani's eligibility and drew parallels with historical instances. The police action triggered a political row, with BJP's Odisha vice president criticizing the government for suppressing dissent. Cops countered that the detention was related to a pending case filed by Patra on the Mission Shakti scooter scheme.
