Bhubaneswar: Odisha Chief Minister Naveen Patnaik on Wednesday expressed his displeasure over the ongoing Covid-19 enforcement activities in the twin cities of Bhubaneswar and Cuttack.
“While I get good feedback about Enforcement activities throughout the State, the feedback regarding Bhubaneswar-Cuttack Commissionerate area is not encouraging.
