Inspired by Naveen’s Ideology, Administrative Officer Mahendra Badhai Takes VRS, Joins BJD

Bargarh: Inspired by Chief Minister Naveen Patnaik’s ideology and his people-centric transformative programmes, Mahendra Kumar Badhai, a senior administrative officer, took voluntary retirement from service and joined the Biju Janata Dal (BJD).

Badhai, who was working as the assistant collector in Nuapada district, joined the BJD in the presence of party supremo Naveen Patnaik this morning.

Other BJD leaders were also present on the occasion.

With crucial Padampur by-election round the corner, the induction of Mahendra Badhai into the BJD fold will give a major boost to the ruling party as Badhai belongs to Padampur area and enjoys popularity among the people.
