Inadequate livelihood opportunities key concern of people in President Murmu's village; Mayurbhanj goes to polls on June 1
Mayurbhanj (Odisha): The hot topics in Odisha politics are alleged corruption in 5T and Jagannath Heritage Corridor Project, non-Odia origin of BJD leader VK Pandian, but it seems the people in President Droupadi Murmu's native village Uperbeda would vote on local issues, such as the inadequate livelihood opportunities, irrigation, education and health facilities.
This village falls under Mayurbhanj constituency which goes to polls on June 1 in the seventh and last phase of the Lok Sabha election.
Some villagers said they are ready to support those who honoured their village as well as the district by making Droupadi Murmu the President of India.
Youths in the village must have opportunity for employment because several educated youths here are unemployed, said Droupadi Mandal, who studied with the President in the primary school of village Uperbeda.
