Patnaik Urges Odisha CM to Seek MMDR Amendment Repeal

Former Odisha Chief Minister Naveen Patnaik has written to Chief Minister Mohan Charan Majhi, urging a special Assembly session to pass a unanimous resolution seeking repeal of the MMDR Amendment. Patnaik says the amendment strips Odisha's constitutional right to tax mineral wealth, risking losses after a Supreme Court ruling had opened nearly Rs 12,000 crore in annual revenue.
