THAT THE BJP is taking Odisha very seriously was evident when two Union ministers were present on Thursday at a meeting to resolve pending issues of the Pandit Ragunath Murmu Medical College and Hospital, Baripada. Apart from Health Minister J P Nadda, Petroleum Minister Dharmendra Pradhan, who is from the state, was present at the meeting attended by officials from the state government and the Union ministry. The Medical Council of India was been asked after the meeting to inspect some other government medical colleges in the state and submit a report by May 24.
