Bhubaneswar, Nov 27 – Odisha Chief Minister Mohan Charan Majhi declared that President Droupadi Murmu’s address to the state Assembly on Thursday will forever be remembered in the chronicles of Odisha’s democracy.
During the event, the CM said, “Today will be etched in golden letters in the democratic history of Odisha. For the first time in the 75‑year long history of the Odisha Assembly, the first citizen of our country, President Droupadi Murmu, will address this August House and guide all of us. On this historic occasion, on behalf of all the members of this August House, I extend a heartfelt welcome to the President.”

With a vision of peace, harmony, equality, and goodwill, the CM expressed confidence that Odisha can be unitedly prosperous and that President Murmu’s words will help realize a thriving Odisha by 2036 and a developed India by 2047.
