Bhubaneswar, July 15:<\/strong>The tragic death of a 20-year-old student from Fakir Mohan Autonomous College in Balasore has plunged Odisha into political turmoil, with opposition parties intensifying their attack on the BJP-led state government. The student, who had accused a faculty member of harassment and attempted self-immolation outside the principal\u2019s office on July 12, succumbed to her burn injuries late Monday night at AIIMS Bhubaneswar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the wake of the incident, the Biju Janata Dal (BJD) launched a scathing attack on the government, holding Chief Minister Mohan Charan Majhi and Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan \u201cmorally responsible\u201d for the institutional failures that allegedly pushed the student to take the extreme step. The party demanded their immediate resignations, along with those of top education officials.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At a press conference on Tuesday, senior BJD MLA Byomkesh Ray accused the government of being a \u201csilent spectator\u201d as the student cried out for help.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cShe reached out to the Chief Minister, the Union Education Minister, the Higher Education Department, and even her local BJP MP. No one responded. They failed her \u2014 in life and in death. They must step down,\u201d Ray asserted.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The BJD announced statewide protests and a public outreach campaign to galvanize support for institutional reforms and demand accountability at the highest levels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Congress, too, stepped up pressure, calling for a statewide bandh on July 17, appealing to citizens to support a complete shutdown in protest against what it called \u201cofficial apathy and failure of governance.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In a sharp counterattack, BJP youth wing state president Abhilash Panda accused the BJD of politicising a human tragedy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWhere was the BJD when the girl was alive and pleading for justice? Their sudden outrage is nothing but political posturing to harvest electoral gains from a young woman\u2019s death,\u201d Panda said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He defended the government\u2019s response, citing the immediate arrest of the accused faculty member, Sameer Ranjan Sahoo, and the suspension and arrest of Principal Dillip Ghosh. A high-level inquiry has also been initiated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe government acted swiftly, in accordance with law, and remains committed to delivering justice,\u201d Panda added.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With emotions raw and political tempers high, Odisha is headed into a tense period of agitation and counter-agitation. While opposition parties prepare to take to the streets, the BJP-led administration is under mounting pressure to address the institutional lapses that culminated in a young student\u2019s death.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
