NEW DELHI: Sharad Pawar-led NCP today extended support of his party's two MLAs to the Naveen Patnaik ministry in Orissa, which was reduced to a
minority after the BJP pulled out of the alliance.
"The MLAs of Nationalist Congress Party in Orissa will support the BJD Government headed by Patnaik," NCP spokesperson D P Tripathi said in a statement.
Patnaik has claimed in Bhubaneshwar that he has a majority in the 147-member assembly with the support of more than 74 MLAs.
