Kannungo further accused the Youth Congress leader and his associates of launching a vilification campaign against the Union Minister on social media.
Jena said that he had posted his reaction on social media to protest against the apathy of the MP, who had not visited his home constituency despite the severe impact of the cyclone Amphan, which had worsened the plight of migrant workers at the government quarantine centres.
