Patnaik's reaction comes a day after Congress president Sonia Gandhi and BJP prime ministerial candidate Narendra Modi accused him of poor governance.
At a rally in Balasore, about 200 km from state capital Bhubaneswar, Gandhi Friday said the central government provided thousands of crores of rupees worth assistance to the state under various programmes but they were not implemented properly.
Accusing the BJD of being corrupt, Gandhi said nearly 4,000 farmers have been forced to commit suicide in the state because of the "anti-farmer policies" of the BJD. She also spoke about scams related to mining, chit funds, mid-day meals and rural jobs
Modi, addressing a rally at the same town, accused Patnaik of poor governance and criticised for his inability to speak Odia, the state's language.
