BMC in Panic, Withdraws Sealing Order for Aparajita’s Office

Bhubaneswar (Reporters Today Bureau): The Bhubaneswar Municipal Corporation today withdrew the sealing order for the office of former IAS and Bhubaneswar MP Aparajita Sarangi with immediate effect.

On October 10, the BMC had sealed the Aparajita’s office after a video that showed the Parliamentarian celebrating her birthday violating Corona guidelines went viral.

Though the sealing was meant to be enforced for 15 days, in its fresh order, the BMC said, “in pursuance of decision taken by the BMC to open all closed down shops, commercial establishments and institutions in view of the ensuing Puja celebration, the sealing order for the MP’s office at Palaspalli under Airfield police limits is hereby withdrawn with immediate effect.”
