At a closed-door meeting with senior leaders on Thursday, Shah asked the leaders to campaign together both for the Lok Sabha and Assembly seats which seems to be a new strategy for the saffron brigade.
BJP leader Mohan Majhi said, "The Home Minister has advised all party leaders to work with confidence. He said if the party could win polls in states with 2 to 6 per cent of votes, there would be no hurdles in Odisha, where it got 34 per cent votes in 2019."
Sounding confident about the party's poll success, Odisha BJP president Manmohan Samal said, "This meeting will make an impact on 4.5 crore people in Odisha. It will give impetus to the people and party workers. In Bolangir, seven Assembly seats will be won by the BJP.”

BJP president of Sonepur district, Parmod Mohapatra said, "Thousands of party workers from Sonepur, Boudh and Bolangir will come to the public meeting.”
After attending the rally, the Home Minister will stay in Bhubaneswar that day and will hold a key meeting the next day with BJP leaders and workers at the party office in Bhubaneswar to discuss the electoral strategies.
