Bhubaneswar: The winter session of the Odisha Assembly began on Tuesday and made obituary references to eminent personalities who passed away recently.

The motion was supported by opposition chief whip Mohan Majhi and Congress legislative party leader Narasingha Mishra. Mishra reportedly used both Odia and Koshali language during his speech.
Members of the House then observed one-minute silence for the departed souls.
