BJD seeks dismissal of J B Patnaik governmentThe Biju Janata Dal will depute a delegation soon to meet Prime Minister A B Vajpayee and Home Minister L K Advani to demand the dismissal of the J B Patnaik government in Orissa. Announcing the decision at a news conference in today, BJD political affairs committee chairman Bijaya Mahapatra said after Bihar, Orissa was a fit case for imposing President's rule because of ''breakdown of law and order, collapse of financial discipline and the alleged sexual exposure of the chief minister.'' Mahapatra alleged that the state government had utterly failed on all fronts and the people did not feel the presence of a government. The BJD leader also announced that Biju Yuva Janata Dal activists would gherao the Raj Bhavan in Bhubaneswar tomorrow, demanding the government's dismissal and a CBI inquiry into the allegations levelled against the chief minister by former director general of police A B Tripathy in connection with the Anjana Mishra molestation case. ''The chief minister should now be brought under the purview of CBI investigation in connection with the Anjana Mishra molestation case after the sensational affidavit filed by the former DGP in response to the Orissa high court's directive,'' Mahapatra said.
