Srikant Jena, the Odisha leader expelled from the Congress, has reminded Rahul Gandhi of two “burning issues” on which the reply of the Congress president is awaited.

“I had… suggested that the Odisha Congress bring the issue of the mining scam (in the state) to the forefront and declare that upon coming to power we will confiscate the properties of all illegal mining owners, their patrons and press criminal charges. Do you agree with this?” Jena asked in a letter addressed to Rahul.
