Cuttack: A day after the suspension of Kendrapara MP Baijayant Panda from the ruling BJD, party spokesperson and Barabati-Cuttack MLA Debashish Samantaray termed Panda’s expulsion as warning for others in the party.

“I welcome the decision of party supremo and CM Naveen Patnaik on Baijayant Panda. This was not a sudden decision. Action was taken after investigation into allegations that were leveled against him. The party supremo had requested all the party MPs, MLAs and leaders to hold discussion with him before going to media over any party affairs. However, Baijayant Panda’s statements on his twitter handle and media was against the party,” said Samantray while addressing a press conference.

“Baijayant Panda’s expulsion will serve as a warning for others in the party,” he added.

Notably, BJD supremo Naveen Patnaik suspended Panda, one of the founding members of BJD and four-time Parliamentarian from the primary membership of the party for indulging in anti-party activities.
