As part of the restructuring, the party has also appointed five new national spokespersons and Santrupt Mishra has been appointed Political Secretary to party patriarch Naveen Patnaik.

Notably, in the 18th Lok Sabha elections, the BJD faced a significant setback, failing to secure any of the 21 seats, while the BJP won 20 seats and Congress managed to win one seat. In the state assembly elections, the BJD won 51 out of 147 seats, while the BJP secured a majority by winning 78 seats.
