Major jolt to BJD in Bhadrak as 3 block chairpersons resign in a single day

In a dramatic political development, the Biju Janata Dal (BJD) suffered a major setback in Bhadrak district after three block chairpersons resigned from the party in a single day, sending shockwaves across the regional political landscape. The unexpected mass exit has triggered intense discussions and speculations.

Banta block Chairman Manoranjan Ghadei, Bhadrak block Chairman Urmila Nayak, and Bhandaripokhari block Chairman Sumati Sethi tendered their resignations from the primary membership of the BJD. All three leaders cited personal reasons in their resignation letters. However, political observers believe there may be deeper internal issues behind the coordinated move.

According to party sources, the resignation chain began with Manoranjan Ghadei, whose exit was soon followed by that of Urmila Nayak and Sumati Sethi, creating a cascading impact. The resignations of three influential grassroots leaders on the same day have reportedly left the opposition party in a state of discomfort and have intensified political tension in the district.

The sudden departure has ignited speculation that the three leaders might soon join the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP). Although there has been no official announcement from either side, discussions are gaining momentum within political circles.
