Bhubaneswar: Odisha president of BJP will continue to remain in the post till Assembly elections in the state in 2024, said state general secretary Prithviraj Harichandan on Tuesday.

Speaking to media persons, Harichandan said there was no move by the Central leadership of the party to change state president. “The BJP has been performing well in the state under the leadership of Mohanty and there would be no change,” he said.

With the BJP’s performance in panchayat and urban elections recently not being so impressive, there were speculations in political circles about change in leadership of the party in the state. Mohanty’s three-year term was about to end soon.
