The Indian Red Cross Society, Police Commissionerate Branch executive committee member Dillip Dashsharma has thanked Chief Minister Naveen Patnaik for providing financial assistance of Rs 44.50 crore to the district Red Cross Societies.
However, Dashsharma demanded that the Government provide financial support to the Bhubaneswar-Cuttack Commissionerate Branch and Rourkela City Branch along with 30 district branches.
He also demanded that district Collectors of Khordha and Sundargarh be asked to ensure that these two branches are not deprived of Government support.
Dashsharma has written a letter to the Chief Minister in this regard.
