The Biju Janata Dal (BJD) has suffered a significant political blow in Bhadrak as veteran leader Prayaskanti Samal, son of senior politician Prafulla Samal, has resigned from the party.
Samal announced his decision to step down from his position as a primary member of BJD, marking a shift in the political landscape of the region.
Having served as the Chairman of Bhadrak Municipality in 2003 and previously holding the responsibility as BJD’s State Secretary, Prayaskanti’s exit raises speculations about its impact on the party’s standing in Bhadrak ahead of the upcoming elections.
Political analysts are closely watching the developments, as Samal’s departure may influence voter sentiment and political alliances in the region. His next move remains uncertain, fueling curiosity about whether he will join another party or enter independent politics.
