congress has started a campaign in the state by claiming that BJD and bjp are united. However, the biggest crisis of congress is the absence of local leaders. According to senior journalist Jyoti Prakash Mohapatra, in the last 10 years, except a few leaders, all the big leaders of congress have fled. The party lacks a strong face to fight at the local level. Considering this shortage, the party has decided to give ticket to a new face. According to congress in-charge ajay Kumar, congress has prepared a new strategy for ticket distribution.

Rai says- This time only those who are working on the land will get tickets. Many of our leaders are also returning home, who had left earlier due to some reason. This time bjp also does not want to leave any stone unturned in Odisha. The party has recently launched a campaign to seek suggestions from people for the manifesto. In the last elections, bjp had won 23 seats in Odisha.

There were 23 seats where the party candidate had to face defeat by less than 10 thousand votes. This time bjp is working on the strategy of transformation in odisha through the Developed odisha, Developed india campaign. However, Patnaik's party is also working on the strategy of alliance with BJP. It is being said that if everything goes well, an alliance can be announced between the two parties in 1-2 days. Under the agreement, bjp can contest more seats in the lok sabha and BJD can contest more seats in the assembly elections. Regarding the discussion of alliance between the two, Jyoti Prakash says – It is beneficial for both the parties. congress has nothing to lose in Odisha. If bjp and BJD contest elections separately, it is possible that congress may get some advantage. According to Jyoti Prakash, both the parties would not want congress to benefit from the fight among their voters.
