The ruling BJP in Odisha is currently grappling with a pressing issue: the return of money to individuals defrauded by chit fund schemes. The party attributes its difficulties to a lack of essential documentation.
BJP state president Manmohan Samal has pointed fingers at the preceding BJD administration, which governed the state for 24 years until 2024, for allegedly losing the documents necessary to proceed with the reimbursements.
In contrast, opposition parties, including the BJD and Congress, criticize the BJP government's inefficiency, urging it to fulfill its promises without placing blame. The situation places significant pressure on the current administration to resolve the matter effectively.
