Bhubaneswar: Ahead of dual elections in Odisha, former MP and veteran leader from Kalahandi district Dhaneswar Majhi quit BJD and joined BJP on Friday.

Former state BJP president Samir Mohanty, vice-president Biranchi Narayan Tripathy, secretary Saroj Kar and former minister Surama Padhi were present at the function.
