The BJP today demanded clarification from Odisha Chief Minister and CBI Director Ranjit Sinha on their meeting, saying, "People want to know what transpired between them as Naveen Patnaik and his ministers are in the orbit of suspicion in coal-gate, mining and chit fund scams".        

"The meeting between the CBI director and the chief minister has sparked suspicion in the mind of people. Therefore, both should clarify as to what was discussed during their meeting," Odisha BJP Spokesman Suresh Pujari told reporters.        

Stating that it was unusual for the head of the premier investigating agency meeting a chief minister, Pujari said that the meeting has raised eyebrows as the CBI was probing alleged irregularities in coal sector, in which Patnaik's role was under scanner.
