Bhubaneswar: For a change, chief minister Naveen Patnaik on Thursday took to Koshali dialect to post a message on distribution of smart health cards under BSKY in Odisha’s Sonepur district.
Naveen skipped Odia language and wrote in the local dialect of western Odisha in his post in the morning before attending the function in Sonepur on virtual mode.
The tweet translated into English goes like this: “I feel happy to meet the people of Subarnapur. I am going to dedicate some projects and lay the foundation stone of others and distribute Biju Swasthya Kalyan Yojana smart health cards.”
ସୁବର୍ଣ୍ଣପୁର୍ ଜିଲ୍ଲାବାସୀଙ୍କୁ ଭେଟବାର୍ ଲାଗି ମୁଇଁ ବହୁତ୍ ଉସତ୍। ଇ ସମିଆକେ ବିଜୁ ସ୍ୱାସ୍ଥ୍ୟ କଲ୍ୟାଣ ଯୋଜନା ସ୍ମାର୍ଟ ହେଲଥ୍ କାର୍ଡ ବାଁଟବାର୍ ସାଙ୍ଗେ ଭିନ୍ ଭିନ୍ ଉନ୍ନୟନ ମୂଲକ୍ ପ୍ରକଳ୍ପର୍ ଲୋକାର୍ପଣ୍ ଆର୍ ଶିଳାନ୍ୟାସ୍ କରବାରକେ ଯାଉଛେଁ।@HFWOdisha#SusthaOdisha#BSKY#BijuSwasthyaKalyanYojana pic.twitter.com/f8WmEsgpMR
