Bhubaneswar, Dec 30(Odisha.in) Taking cue from Gujrat elctions during which masks of Gujrat Chief Minister Narendra Modi were distributed liberally among the party workers and voters to buy their loyality, now the BJD activists have started distributing masks of Chief Minister and Janata Dal supremo Naveen Patnaik among the party cadres.
The masks were virtually inaugurated on 26th December, during celebration of the 10th foundation day of the party.
A BJD activist told Odisha.in that a number of party leaders are now consulting event managers and producers of novelty items to suggest some such cheap fancy items like the masks for popularising Chief Minister Naveen Patnaik and by that to gain his blessings.
However, many opposition activists have also expressed their happiness over availability of Naveen Patnaik masks, because according to them, now it will be easier for them to burn effigies of Chief Minister by putting a mask on the effigy, during anti-Government demostrations.
