Bhubaneswar, April 12: After a gap of more than two years, the Odisha Government on Tuesday decided to reopen State Secretariat (Lok Seva Bhawan), Kharavel Bhawan and Rajiv Bhawan from April 18 for public and accredited journalists keeping in view the current COVID-19 situation in the State.
State Home Department Special Secretary PC Pradhan has written a letter to all Government departments about this decision on Tuesday.
“Keeping in view of the recent pandemic situation and relaxation of Covid related restrictions, the government has been pleased to inform that the reception counter at the Loka Seva Bhawan, Kharavel Bhawan and Rajiv Rhawan will be made fully functional from April 18, 2022 for allowing general public for their grievances and other official work in the Secretariat,” Pradhan said in the letter.
The general public and others can apply for passes through online via link htip://epravesh.odisha.gov.in/ or through mobile app (ePravesh).
The three State headquarters offices – Lok Seva Bhawan, Kharavel Bhawan and Rajiv Bhawan – were closed down for the public and journalists following the outbreak of COVID-19 pandemic in March 2020.
