Bhubaneswar : Orissa’s Steel and Mines Minister Padmanabha Behera Friday resigned owning “moral responsibility” for the communal violence in parts of the state, official sources said here.
Clashes between groups of Hindus and Christians since the eve of Christmas in Orissa’s Kandhamal district and the police action that followed have left five people dead and dozens injured.
The government has already decided to get the incidents probed by a retired high court judge.
