Garvita OdiaBhubaneswar,18/03: A fresh political controversy has emerged over the ‘Biju Naveen Inspirational Foundation’ after BJD president Naveen Patnaik today issuing a clarification on its formation even as the BJP questioned the timing and intent behind the move. The BJP has raised several questions over the clarification. BJP MLA Santosh Khatua questioned why the clarification came months after the trust’s formation. “The trust was formed on May 9, 2025. Why was this clarification not given earlier?” Khatua asked. He also sought details on the operation of the trust and its registration. “If the trust is for Odisha, why has it not been registered here?” he added.
Notably, the row emerged after suspended BJD leader Shreemayee Mishra shared documents related to the foundation on social media. She alleged that the trust could be part of a broader plan to gain control over party assets and funds.
