Bhubaneswar: The recent escalation in the border Barisan between Odisha and Andhra Pradesh in Pancayat Kotia from Coraput Regency has pushed the group led by the Bharatiya Janata (BJP) party leader and former local parliamentarian Jayaram Pangkan suggested carving the union area in the region.
Pangi, who has called a meeting on Sunday to give a form on his plan, wanting UT named Dandakyarya Parbatamala region consisting of Odisha, Chhattisgarh and Andhra Pradesh.
Pangi (65), former minister in Odisha (1990-1995), said UT could only bring prosperity to areas trapped in disputes between countries whose solutions were not seen even after more than five decades.
“I will resign from BJP immediately to devote more time to work on independent forum requests,” Pang said.
The tribal leader said he had spoken with many leaders, including the elected representatives today and the former in the area for the past six months.
“People generally feel UT will be a very good idea for the development of the area, talented with natural mineral resources (especially bauxite and gems) and the great potential that has not been used for ecotourism and water resources,” he said.
‘Efforts by several people to extinguish the attention center’ While the core group meeting was held on Monday, more people from the region were expected to attend the Open House on Sunday to streamline the strategy, “he added.
Pangi, which is a native population of the Turia Village below Kotia Panchayat and the Chosen MLA from PottLangi four times, said the area had a similar socio-cultural situation and most of the people of Odia.
“Most UT proposed consist of Coraput Regency, Malkangiri, Nabarang and Rayaganada in Odisha, Araku, Paderu and Parts of the District of Salur in Andhra Pradesh and Sukma in Chhattisgarh have been part of the Yeypore Yeypore country that used to be.
“The population in the area will be around one crore.
This area has the majority of Kondha and Paraja tribes other than Christians.
While demand for separate countries can cause too much politics, UT will ensure fewer political and fund flows are better than the center , “he said,” it will also end the left wing extremism in the area.
“Political analyst felt such demands would provide unnecessary pressure on the country’s federal system.
“The request for UT is not justified.
It is probably the best to be a political step by several people to extinguish the center of attention,” said Jayant Mohapatra, a former professor of the political science of the University, who did his school in the coraput.
