Dharmendra Pradhan pitches for two more city-based eco regions

Union Education Minister Dharmendra Pradhan has urged Odisha Chief Minister Mohan Charan Majhi to develop two new city economic regions (CERs) in western and central Odisha. The proposed regions, Sambalpur-Sundargarh-Jharsuguda-Bargarh and Angul-Dhenkanal, are envisioned to drive balanced regional growth and position Odisha as a key economic driver, mirroring the success of the Bhubaneswar-Cuttack-Puri-Paradip corridor.
