Odia Individuals to Receive Priority in Industrial Establishment: Chief Minister

If any Odia youth or entrepreneur expresses interest in establishing an industry, they will be given priority. The state government is ready to provide full support in this regard," said Chief Minister Mohan Charan Majhi.

The Chief Minister made these remarks as the Chief Guest at the 25th Foundation Day of Bharat Masala and the Bharat Pratibha Samman 2024.

At the grand ceremony held at the Bharat Masala premises in Barang, Chief Minister Majhi praised Bharat Masala Founder, Surendranath Panda, and Managing Director, Susanta Panda, for their efforts. He remarked that Bharat Masala has established a distinct identity not only within the state but also internationally.

The company, which began with just ₹400, has now grown into an enterprise with a turnover of ₹600 crore.

Thanks to its leadership, employees, and product quality, Bharat Masala has created a vast market and provided employment opportunities for many Odia families.
