In a social media post, the Chief Minister said that the Prime Minister’s appreciation of Koraput Coffee is a moment of pride for Odisha. He described Koraput Coffee as “a testament to Odisha’s diverse climate and harvest” and “a reflection of the hard work and resilience of local coffee cultivators, particularly women farmers.”

“Pride brewed with joy when the Prime Minister spoke about the taste and impact Koraput Coffee has had on Odisha and Bharat. It showcases not just our land’s diversity but also the strength of our farming communities,” Majhi wrote.
