Pratap Chandra Sarangi  

On the occasion of Martyrs’ Day, paying tribute on the 72nd death anniversary of Mahatma Gandhi, Union Minister for Micro Small Medium Enterprises, Nitin Gadkari, launched the limited edition of Khadi wrist watches in New Delhi on 30th January 2020. The Minister of State MSME, Animal Husbandry, Dairying & Fisheries, Pratap Chandra Sarangi, Chairman Khadi and Village Industries Commission KVIC Vinai Kumar Saxena and CEO Titan Ravi Kant were present at the event.

The debutant MP from Odisha wondered if those who do not believe in 'Vande Mataram' slogan have any right to live in India and asserted that "tukde-tukde" gang will not be tolerated in the country.

Pratap Chandra Sarangi became MLA twice. He also defeated the sitting BJD MP and industrialist Rabindra Kumar Jena by 12,956 votes in the recent Lok Sabha polls.
