Former CM Naveen Patnaik , who tended to manage issues related to flood-induced damage and crop failures from a distance, often preferring aerial surveys on his chopper instead of direct engagements with affected farmers, sparked political debate after he finally stepped out of Naveen Niwas and visited agricultural communities. However, a viral video has apparently exposed the BJD . On December 31, a poignant video circulated widely, capturing a farmer’s emotional breakdown in Patnaik's presence.
It turns out that he was a ‘fake’ farmer planted by BJD leaders to gain sympathy. This mix of mirth and melancholy has stirred considerable reaction both online and offline. The video has sparked animated discussions concerning Patnaik's sincerity to farmers.
Social media is abuzz with people questioning the authenticity of Naveen Patnaik’s visit to Salepur, Cuttack district , on December 31. Now, netizens are questioning whether the meeting was a choreographed drama rather than a genuine interaction. The spotlight is on a ‘fake’ farmer who was seen shedding crocodile tears while meeting Patnaik, only to be later seen driving off smiling on a scooter.
This has sparked queries over whether the farmer's emotional display was sincere or if he was coerced and trained for a performance. Questions are further intensified about whether Patnaik’s visit might be part of a new strategy by the ruling Biju Janata Dal (BJD) to bolster its image after recent electoral setbacks. Obser.
