BJD Accuses Odisha Government of Delayed Flood Response
In Odisha, big floods caused many problems.
A political group called Biju Janata Dal said the state government was slow to help.
They said the chief minister was in Delhi when the floods were worst.
Because of this, people lost lives and animals, and a lot of farmland got flooded.
The chief minister only sent help after he came back from Delhi.
BJD alleges Odisha government delayed response to floods.
Chief Minister Mohan Charan Majhi was in Delhi during critical phase.
Seven people died, 1,380 animals lost, thousands of acres flooded.
BJD claims government only acted after CM returned from Delhi.
CM assigned ministers to oversee relief after returning.
