Days after the Odisha assembly election results, outgoing Chief Minister Naveen Patnaik clarified that BJD leader VK Pandian, despite his long association as Patnaik's private secretary and subsequent entry into politics, is not his chosen successor. Patnaik emphasised that the people of Odisha will ultimately decide on his successor. Patnaik acknowledged Pandian's contributions in various sectors but reiterated that Pandian had not held any official party position.

Sambit Patra, BJP's Lok Sabha candidate in Odisha's Puri seat, sparked controversy by proclaiming "Lord Jagannath is Modi's devotee" after a rally with PM Modi. Chief Minister Naveen Patnaik condemned the statement, calling it an insult to Lord Jagannath and Odia pride. Patra apologized, citing a "slip of the tongue" due to heat. The incident underscores the sensitivity of mixing religion and politics.
