Nabarangpur, Jul 26:

Odisha’s Biju Janata Dal workers, led by state Transport Minister Ramesh Majhi, today held a demonstration in Nabarangpur demanding CBI investigation into the alleged links of former Nabarangpur MP Pradeep Majhi’s family with chit fund company Seashore group.

BJD protests against pradeep majhi

Workers took out a rally on the Nabarangpur main road and burnt effigies of Pradeep Majhi demanding the CBI investigation.

“These are serious allegations. We urge CBI to include Majhi and his family in its investigation of Seashore chit fund scam. We will intensify our agitation, should there be no action against him,” said BJD's Majhi speaking to reporters.

It may be mentioned here that a private news television recently aired a series of reports where it claimed that Majhi’s family had received money from the tainted chit fund company.

His father, however, had issued a clarification stating that he had received money for selling his corn crops to the company.
