The former chief minister and BJD president on Monday visited different areas of Ganjam, including his Assembly constituency Hinjli, Aska, Kabisurjyanagar and Khallikote to make a ground assessment of the crop damage. He walked into the affected agricultural fields and interacted with farmers about their plight.

"The farmers told me that they had no advance information about rain or advisory. Had farmers received prior information about unseasonal rain, they could have saved their crop," he told mediapersons after the visit.
