In the past the term Orissa was a synonym of poverty, floods, draught, lack of food. But all these have changed now. NP is a great leader. He is single handedly taking Orissa forward but stupid communists are again creating hurdles. The good thing about NP is he relies less on politicians and trusts beauracrats more. (Who is that retired IAS officer in whom NP has complete faith... I think some Mishra) All educated & forward thinking oddus should kick out these commie fellows. If NP is CM of Orissa for another 2 or 3 terms, then Orissa with its mineral resources and hard working people can definitely beat Maharastra or Gujarat in terms of prosperity.
