Odisha CM meets Odia cine stars ahead of elections

Bhubaneswar, April 12 (SocialNews.XYZ) Odisha Chief Minister Naveen Patnaik met various Odia movie actors, actresses, and singers at his residence, Naveen Niwas, here on Friday.

While speaking to media persons after the meeting, one of the cine stars said that several artists, singers and other members of the Odia cine industry were called by the Chief Minister and 5T Chairman V.K. Pandian for the meeting.

The actress further said that discussions were held on the developmental goals set for Odisha from 2024 to 2034.
