Odisha BJP stumbled into an unexpected windfall victory they weren't ready for, and now governance is sliding into total chaos. Unearned luck breeds complacency.

I have travelled Raipur–Pune and faced 7–8 hours of delays like it’s normal. Now for a one-night journey, Durg–Puri Express (18426) is 4 hours+ late. These govt mfs have zero accountability in anything. Passengers suffer, no one answers, and this nonsense just continues.
India's first leader of opposition to make all 81 MLAs of the ruling BJP Govt to remove the very bill they signed, just through one 30 word letter. Odisha's favourite son.
In the next impending cabinet reshuffle, some ministers need to just go. Aviation is in shit, Telecom is another one, Gadkari fakes his RSS support, Petroleum guy is busy ceding ground to Transport for ethanol…
The complacency is visible and they have stopped caring!
Broken roads, delayed/cancelled flights, damaged engines, recurring increase in recharge amount… the list goes on. They should be made to answer for the purposeful ignorance resulting in widespread inconvenience.

I was in Bengaluru and was blown away by how this 200 acre area is maintained by private firms 😭
Roads were pothole/dust free, with proper markings. Proper plantation with wide footpaths.
What is stopping our Government from maintaining roads like this?
