Bhubaneswar: Actor-turned-politician Anubhav Mohanty today joined the BJP today. He had left the ruling BJD in Odisha a few days ago.
The Kendrapara MP joined the saffron party in New Delhi. Mohanty was welcomed to the BJP by senior party leader, Vinod Tawde.
The former MP Anubhav Mohanty was entangled in a legal battle with his wife Varsha Priyadarshani. Moreover, Mohanty was allegedly neglected by BJD and was not seen in several programmes of the conch party in Kendrapara and other parts.
Mohanty was earlier the star campaigner of BJD and used to tour several parts of the state. However, he was missing from the party events and affairs for a long time.
