**Mahila Congress Demands President’s Rule in Odisha Over Student Death**

*Bhubaneswar, July 16, 2025* – The All India Mahila Congress President, Alka Lamba, today called for the resignation of Odisha Chief Minister Mohan Charan Majhi and the immediate imposition of President’s Rule in the state, citing the tragic death of a college student in Balasore district. Lamba, speaking to reporters in Bhubaneswar, condemned what she called a systemic failure leading to the student’s death.

“The Chief Minister, as the head of the system, bears responsibility for this tragedy,” Lamba stated. “He should resign, and President’s Rule must be imposed, just as we demanded in Manipur. Women and girls are not safe in Odisha.”

Lamba drew a parallel to Prime Minister Modi’s previous calls for President’s Rule in Rajasthan, alleging similar safety concerns. She also criticized the Chief Minister’s inexperience and performance during his first year in office.

“While the Chief Minister plasters the state with posters of himself alongside the Prime Minister, the reality on the ground is that Odisha is spiraling towards destruction,” Lamba claimed. She further criticized Prime Minister Modi for not publicly acknowledging the victim, despite her alleged association with the ABVP, the student wing of the RSS.

The Congress party, Lamba confirmed, intends to press for President’s Rule in Odisha during the upcoming Lok Sabha session. “We will continue to fight for the safety of women in this state,” she vowed.

The death of the college student has sparked widespread outrage in Odisha, raising concerns about the safety and security of women in the state.
