He made the accusation against the backdrop of one Chhotelal Mohanta who tested positive for coronavirus and is currently in Bankisole Covid Care hospital.Manoj claimed that Mohanta had visited the palace and must have come in contact with all the big shots, and added that former MLA of Moroda Assembly segment had returned from Kolkata after a long stay but was roaming freely.
Accusing the police and administration for not taking any action, he had appealed to quarantine all those who had visited the palace.A palace staff Anup Kumar Pattanayak filed a police case against him.
