SAMBALPUR: After spending nearly 20 hours in the custody of Saraipali police in Chhattisgarh’s Mahasamund district, BJD leader Bishal Das was released from detention at around 6 pm on Friday. Son of late cabinet minister Naba Kisore Das, Bishal was detained by Chhattisgarh police along with some panchayat samiti members and sarpanchs of Jharsuguda who were reportedly lodged in a hotel in Saraipali ahead of the no-confidence motion vote against Kirmira block chairperson Krishnapriya Sahu on the day. On Thursday evening, Saraipali police first detained around nine PRI members. The incident came to light after the BJD leader shared a video message in which the detained PRI members claimed they were being denied their right to vote in the no-confidence motion by Chhattisgarh police.
