On
20.9.18, while dedicating Krishi Bhawan ( new Building constructed by Govt. of Odisha in which
Department of Agriculture is
functioning) for farmers of the state , Sri Nabin Patnaik , Chief
Minister said that this
building had been constructed out of
money received from Krishi Karman Award by Govt. of Odisha ( news published in
Samaj on 21.9.18 is
attached for reference of the readers ) . He also said
that the State Govt has received Rs. 17
crores from Krishi Karman Award .
But RTI query dated 31.1.19
says that the State
Govt. has received just Rs.
14 crore
from Krishi Karman Award.

But RTI query dated 31.1.19

Then
after , on 22.9.18., RTI application was filed
to the PIO, Dept. of Agriculture, Govt. of Odisha seeking
information about details of budgetary
allocation made for
construction of Krishi Bhawan and
details of Krishi Karman award money
used for this
building and copy of text of speech of Chief Minister. It
deserves to mention here that information
about text of Speech of Chief
Minister was sought to
verify whether the news
covered statement of Chief Minister is true or not. Though the PIO, Directorate of
Agriculture and food Production supplied
about details of fund spent
but declined to give
details of fund received
from Krishi Karman Award. On 12.10.18., Sri Bishnu Prasad Mishra, Deputy Secretary,
office of Chief Minister provided that “the text of Chief Minister has already
been published in the newspaper. So there is no need to supply it”. So it
is authenticated that the news published
in newspaper is based on fact and has
rightfully carried the
written speech of Chief Minister.

The
whole episode left me confused Out
of curiosity and to remove
confusion from my mind to know the exact amount
received by State Govt. from Krishi Karman Award out of which
such a high-profile palatial
building has been constructed, I filed
another RTI Application to the
PIO , Department of Agriculture
seeking information about details
of money
received from Krushi Karman
Award and amount spent
for construction of Krishi
Bhawan. On 4.2.19. the PIO,
