Protests over murder of teacher
Eggs were hurled at Chief Minister Naveen Patnaik by members of the youth wing of the BJP while he was on his way to a helipad after a function at the Jagannath Temple in Puri on Wednesday.
The BJP wing had issued the threat of egg attack in advance, but Mr. Patnaik’s convoy could not be targeted. The CM landed near the venue, cordoned off by a thick security blanket, which denied protesters the opportunity to target him.
Mr. Patnaik, more than a dozen of his Ministerial colleagues and Union Minister Bishweswar Tudu have faced “egg attacks” from their political adversaries in the past one month.

After more-than-two-year wait, the flyover at Goripalayam junction will be commissioned on Saturday. As of now, the main arm of the new flyover, named after freedom fighter Netaji Subash Chandra Bose, will help to decongest vehicular movement from Tamukkam junction till Nelpettai junction on East Veli Street.
