Yudhisthir Samantaray is no more
No longer with us is the former MLA of Pipili-Delang, Shri Yudhisthir Samantaray. Within the Pipili constituency, he was fondly known as Kedara Babu by everyone. He had remarkable transparency and dedication in the fields of politics and public service. He stood by the people in their times of joy and sorrow alike.
Every morning and evening, a unique scene could be witnessed in Pipili Bazaar — Shri Samantaray would sit on a wooden bench at a designated spot, listening to the issues and grievances of the public, earnestly trying to resolve them to the best of his abilities. He also had deep knowledge in the field of law and order.
Today, the region mourns the loss of such a compassionate people’s leader. His loved ones are heartbroken, having lost their beloved guide and companion. The people of the area are offering heartfelt prayers to Lord Jagannath for the departed soul’s peace and for strength and support to his grieving family.
