Mohan Charan Majhi took oath as the Chief Minister of Odisha in the first BJP government on June 12, 2024, after its emphatic performance in the assembly polls, after it defeated the Biju Janata Dal (BJD), bringing an end to the latter’s 24-year-old reign.
The 52-year-old belonging to the Santali tribe hails from the state’s Keonjhar district. Beginning his career as a sarpanch from 1997-2000, Majhi was elected to the state assembly for the first time in 2000 from Keonjhar. He was re-elected in 2004. From 2005 to 09, he was the government deputy chief whip in the BJD-BJP coalition government. He was again elected as an MLA in 2019. In the recent polls, Majhi retained the seat by defeating BJD’s Mina Majhi by 11,577 votes.
The BJP won 78 of 147 seats in the Odisha assembly polls. (ANI)
