This is the message of Ex-Sub-Collector, Bhubaneswar
When I was Sub-collector, Bhubaneswsr, one evening I came back to the Office after my field tour and found that one lady was sitting in front of my office chamber. I requested her to come to my office room and enquired about the purpose of visiting the office. She said, one application is pending in your Office for extension of permission to sell her land in Bhubsneswar. I immediately called for the case record and found that she had taken extension thrice and this was her 4th application for extension. I wanted to know the reason of obtaining the permission thrice and not selling the land but I was shocked when she gave the reason of taking multiple permissions. After obtaining the first permission to sell the land, her son expired and in subsequent extensions she faced two more mishaps of death of her husband and another son. She wanted to sell the land to settle some loan. I told Madam, please furnish the affidavit on next day regarding non transaction of the land & she submitted too and permission was also given on the same day. The lady was no other than Mrs Droupadi Murmu. She is that noble & humble lady, being a former Minister then came to the office like a common citizen for her work. We are proud of her as she is going to be the Head of the Nation...
