Dear friends

Few months back, the Socio-Economic Survey report was released by Govt. of India in which the miserable and pathetic condition of the people of Odisha was highlighted. 88% of the family of Odisha earn less than Rs. 5000.00 per month and 65 % of the people do not have pucca house. 54% of the people do not have own homestead land. Besides that 94 % of the people   have no vehicle. When it was highlighted in mass media, many people raised doubt about authenticity of the information relating to 94% of the people having no vehicle.
