In a move set to redefine the political landscape of Odisha, Biju Janata Dal (BJD) President and Chief Minister Shri. Naveen Patnaik has unveiled the second list of candidates for the upcoming Lok Sabha and Assembly elections in the state. With meticulous selection and a keen eye on inclusivity, the BJD’s candidate lineup reflects a commitment to empowering diverse voices and fostering progressive governance.
Under the astute leadership of Chief Minister Naveen Patnaik, BJD has emerged as a formidable force, dedicated to serving the people of Odisha with unwavering dedication and visionary policies. The second list of candidates, meticulously curated by CM Patnaik himself, embodies the party’s ethos of inclusivity, progress, and grassroots empowerment.

– Manjulata Mandal (Bhadrak)
– Parineeta Mishra (Bargarh)
– Bhrugu Baxipatra (Berhampur)

In contrast to the BJD’s inclusive approach, the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has announced its first list of candidates for the assembly polls in Odisha. However, it is the BJD’s steadfast commitment to grassroots empowerment, progressive policies, and visionary leadership that continues to resonate with the people of Odisha.
The upcoming elections in Odisha, scheduled to be conducted concurrently with the Lok Sabha polls, mark a pivotal moment in the state’s political landscape. With elections divided into four phases, spanning from May 13 to June 1, the results, to be announced on June 4, will determine the future trajectory of Odisha’s governance.
In the backdrop of BJD’s resounding victory in the 2019 Assembly polls, securing 112 seats under the dynamic leadership of Naveen Patnaik, the party stands poised to usher in a new era of progress, prosperity, and inclusive governance. As CM Patnaik’s fifth consecutive term since 2000, the upcoming elections reaffirm BJD’s unwavering commitment to serving the people of Odisha and realizing their aspirations for a brighter future.
