BJP legislators staged a walkout from the Odisha Assembly alleging misuse of the Contingency Fund for a farmers' welfare scheme.
Provisions say the Contingency fund can only be utilised in emergencies like a cyclone.
BJP members alleged that the state government used the fund for Kalia Scheme, which provides Rs 5000 twice a year to farmers.
Later, the BJP MLAs met Governor Ganeshi Lal to hand him over a memorandum on the issue.
