Revenue and Disaster Management Minister Suresh Pujari has downplayed the opposition's challenge to move a no-confidence motion against the government during the upcoming monsoon session of the Assembly. Reacting to Congress PCC President Bhakta Charan Das's call for a no-confidence motion, Minister Pujari said the opposition would be "bloodied" by the motion.
Pujari stated that the opposition should be prepared to answer for their 40-year tenure, while the government would account for its one-year performance.
The minister claimed that the no-confidence motion would be a "boomerang" for the opposition, implying that it would ultimately backfire.
The Congress has called on the BJD to support a no-confidence motion, while the BJD has been accused of being the main opposition party with a responsibility to provide justice to women.
The monsoon session is expected to be lively, with the opposition likely to raise various issues, including women's safety, the FM College student death case, and the autumnal rain incident.
The government is gearing up to respond to the opposition's challenges and defend its performance.
