Office Graffiti Blames Odisha Collector For PA’s Death

Malkangiri: A graffiti painted on the boundary wall of Malkangiri Collector Manish Agarwal’s office on Wednesday blamed him for the recent death of his personal assistant (PA), Deba Narayan Panda.

Police have begun a probe into the unpleasant comment.

Notably, Banaja Panda, the PA’s wife, had lodged a police complaint on December 27 after he failed to return home in the evening.

Acting on the complaint, police had begun a search operation. They found Panda’s bike and helmet at Satiguda dam the next morning. Police later found his body floating in water.

The wife later told the media that her husband could have committed suicide due to excess work pressure.
