Bhubaneswar: Ollywood star-turned-MP Anubhav Mohanty has requested President Ram Nath Kovind and Prime Minister Narendra Modi to meet two students from Kendrapara, who have cycled over 1,600 km to New Delhi to highlight issues of Odisha farmers.

The two students — Krishnakant Sarangi (engineering) and Subhrajit Barik (zoology) — said they wished to meet the President and Prime Minister and present the Mahanadi river water dispute to them.

They said farmers in Odisha were suffering because of the construction of barrages on the river in Chhattisgarh.

On his part, the Kendrapara MP said, “I request the President and PM to spare some time and meet this young duo from Odisha as they have come with lots of hope and some interesting suggestions on resolving the issue.”
