AU, NARASINGHA FILE PAPERS FOR B’NGIR, KV FOR PATNAGARH
==============================================================
Three high-profile leaders, BJP candidate Kanak Vardhan Singh Deo for the Patnagarh Assembly seat, BJD candidate AU Singh Deo and Congress’ Narasingha Mishra both for the Balangir Assembly seat, filed their respective nomination papers on Saturday, the last day for filing of nominations for the first phase polls to be held on April 10.
BJP State president and incumbent Patnagarh MLA KV Singh Deo, also a royal icon of Balangir, has been winning the seat unabatedly in the last couple of elections.
After filing his nomination paper, former Law Minister Narsingha Mishra told mediapersons that though he is contesting from Balangir seat for the first time, people would vote for him as he is fully committed for development of Balangir.
“People of Balangir know very well about my party’s role in construction of the medical college here. People would vote for the Congress to end feudalism, the falsehood propaganda of the BJD Government and inability of local representative in solving the problems here,” Mishra said.
AU Singh Deo, who was accompanied by his son Kalikesh to file his paper, siad, “People of Balangir will vote for me for peace and development.”
Asked to comment on his resignation of Rajya Sabha seat, he said Balangir seat is more important than Rajaya Sabha seat for him. Interestingly, both Mishra and Singh Deo came across each other at the time of filing papers. They greeted each other by hugging.
