The state BJP on Saturday promised a host of welfare measures including permanent land patta, concrete house to the poor and jobs to the youth in Odisha if it is voted to power in the upcoming Assembly elections 2019. Senior BJP leader and Union Petroleum Minister Dharmendra Pradhan made these announcements at a party meeting in Bhubaneswar. Addressing the event, Pradhan said if the party is voted to power in the state, no one will be left without permanent land patta along with pucca house.

Similarly, all the jobless youth would be provided with employment and self-employment opportunities, he said, appealing to the people to vote for the BJP to ensure speedy development of the state and welfare of all.

Stating that Narendra Modi Government at the Centre has taken a slew of measures for the poor in the country since it came to power in 2014, Pradhan said the BJP will also provide facilities like drinking water, toilets, electricity and LPG connections to the people in Odisha.
