Union Minister of State for Heavy Industries, Babul Supriyo, taking a sarcastic jibe at BJD leaders for attacking Union Minister Jual Oram, said that he will make an omelette if anyone hurls eggs at him, adding that he is not afraid of any such attack during his visit to Odisha.
He told reporters, “there is not an iota of fear in me. I heard some people hurled eggs. I am a non-vegetarian. If BJD and Congress workers hurl eggs at me, I’ll make an omelette with it and eat that”.
On Wednesday, several BJD workers hurled eggs at the vehicle of Union Minister of Tribal Affairs, Jual Oram, at Aul Bazaar in Kendrapara. Where the eggs were hurled at him, Congress activists showed black flags to him.

BJD supporters opposed the visit of the minister over Mahanadi water dispute. On the other hand, Congress workers targeted him over the killings of six farmers in police firing in Mandsaur and also on the Mahanadi issue.
Accusing both the BJD and the Congress of looting the state, Oram said,“I have come from West Bengal where the political situation is worse than Odisha, so none can scare me here”.
“The BJD and Congress are creating hindrances for the welfare schemes of the Centre to reach the people,” he alleged.
