Odisha Chief Minister Naveen Patnaik's aircraft was Wednesday diverted to Jeypore in Koraput district after it failed to make a landing at Lanjigarh airstrip in Kalahandi due to inclement weather, an official said.
A few local television channels claimed that Patnaik's aircraft had to make an emergency landing at Jeypore, but the chief minister's office (CMO) denied the report.
"The report of CM's aircraft making an emergency landing at Jeypore is totally baseless. He will shortly leave for Rayagada in Koraput district by a chopper to attend the schedule programme," the CMO statement said
