In the widely shared video, Patra is heard declaring that Lord Jagannath is PM Modi’s bhakt (devotee) while speaking to a private Odia station.

“Mahaprabhu Shree Jagannatha is the Lord of Universe,” declared Naveen Patnaik, the chief minister of Odisha and the leader of the ruling Biju Janata Dal, in response to the film. It is an affront to the Lord to refer to Mahaprabhu as a follower of another person. Across the world, this has offended and denigrated the beliefs of millions of Odias and Jagannatha bhaktas.”

Calling Lord Jagannath the greatest symbol of Odia asmita (pride), Patnaik denounced Patra’s statement.

“By this you have deeply hurt Odia Asmita and this will be remembered and condemned by the people of Odisha for a very long time,” he said.

Later, Sambit Patra clarified his remarks, emphasising that it was a slip of tongue.

Replying to Naveen Patnaik’s post on X, Sambit Patra wrote, “Naveen Ji Namaskar! I gave number of bytes today to multiple media channels after the massive success of Shri Narendra Modiji’s Road Show in Puri today, everywhere I mentioned that Modi ji is an ardent “Bhakt” of Shri Jagannath Mahaprabhu. By mistake during one of the bytes I pronounced just the opposite. I know you too know and understand this.”

“Sir, let’s not make an issue out of a nonexistent issue. We all have ‘slip of tongue’ sometimes. Thanks and Pranam,” he added.

In a video on X, Patra said he would fast for three days to repent for his mistake.

“Today, I am deeply troubled by the mistake I have made regarding Mahaprabhu Shri Jagannath Ji,” a rough translation of Patra’s post in Hindi read.

“I bow down at the feet of Mahaprabhu Sri Jagannath Ji and beg for forgiveness. I will be fasting for the next three days to correct my mistake and repent,” he added.

Aam Aadmi Party chief Arvind Kejriwal also criticised Patra, calling his remark an “insult to God”.

“I strongly condemn this statement of BJP. They have started thinking that they are above God. This is height of arrogance. Calling God bhakt of Modi ji is an insult to God,” he said.

The Congress also hit out at the BJP over Patra’s remark. “BJP leader Sambit Patra says that Mahaprabhu Lord Shri Jagannath is a devotee of Narendra Modi. This is a grave insult to Mahaprabhu. This statement has hurt the faith of crores of devotees. Sambit Patra, who is immersed in Modi Bhakti, should not have committed this sin. Narendra Modi himself should apologize for this disgusting statement,” a post on party’s X handle read.

Lord Jagannath, a form of Lord Vishnu, is a popular deity in Odisha and his temple in Puri is a pilgrimage site.

“He’s got the courage.”
Lara stated in the interview that people should “hold up to their convictions.” In the end, we’re all just people. It’s really challenging to win everyone over. The Prime Minister of our nation is subject to online criticism, just like performers are. Each of us handles it with grace. You can’t skirt problems all the time in an attempt to please everyone. In the end, you have to adhere to your principles and ideas. Bravo if he has the guts to take that risk. You have to stick to your convictions in the end, the speaker stated.

What did PM Modi say?
During the Congress party’s rule, PM Modi stated at a rally in Rajasthan that “they said Muslims have the first right over the country’s resources.” When he said the party “will gather all your wealth and distribute it among those who have more children” if it were to regain power, the audience applauded.”Do you think your hard-earned money should be given to infiltrators?” he asked, going on, “They will distribute it among infiltrators?”

Next steps for Lara
Lara is currently marketing her upcoming television series, Ranneeti: The Balakot Region & Beyond. Lara Dutta explores the complexities of contemporary warfare and geopolitical relations while playing the role of a power broker.

Santosh Singh is the director of the series, which aims to reveal little-known details behind a significant defensive operation and offer light on the fusion of conventional and modern military strategies.

We have, in my opinion, now brought the G20’s fundamental goals and purposes into the mainstream. I hope that your personal experience confirms this.
