PURI: Scotching the general perception that the ruling BJD is run by a handful of politicians and bureaucrats, the party president and chief minister Naveen Patnaik, while addressing a huge gathering on the occasion of his party’s 25th foundation day event at Puri on Monday said the party is never dependent on one or two persons.
Naveen (76) used the silver jubilee flatform to convey that the BJD will serve people of Odisha for 100 more years notwithstanding little clarity about his successor and perceived uncertainty in people’s mind about BJD’s fate after him.
