Debashish Samantaray, a former BJD Rajya Sabha MP, officially joined the BJP in New Delhi just a day after resigning from BJD. He was welcomed by top BJP leaders including Arun Singh and Manmohan Samal. This marks the third BJD Rajya Sabha MP defecting to the BJP recently. The move has triggered internal conflict within BJD, with several leaders questioning the influence of V.K. Pandian and the party's current leadership. More BJD MPs from coastal Odisha are rumored to join BJP in the coming week. https://otvkhabar.in/odisha/debashish-joins-bjp-odisha-politics-witnesses-fresh-power-shift-11877386 #creator program
