The Chief Minister of Odisha is expected to attend BJP rallies in Jharkhand.

According to sources, there is a possibility that Odisha Chief Minister Mohan Charan Majhi will soon be embarking on a two-day visit to Jharkhand. This is significant as the state is gearing up for assembly elections later this year. As the leader of the BJP's first government in Odisha and a prominent figure in the Santhal community, Majhi is expected to attend the 'Parivartan Yatra' of the saffron party on September 30th and October 1st.

During his visit, Majhi is likely to make stops at Jagannathpur in West Singhbhum district and Kolhan in Chaibasa. This development came about after the Chief Minister met with Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma, who is also the BJP's co-in-charge for Jharkhand elections. The two leaders had a discussion on Friday at the Raj Bhavan in the presence of Odisha Governor Raghubar Das.

In the meantime, Union Tribal Affairs Minister Jual Oram, who is also a tribal leader from Odisha, visited Jharkhand on Saturday and participated in several events there. The BJP, which is confident about its prospects in the upcoming elections, has enlisted the support of various party leaders, MLAs, and MPs from Odisha. BJP MP and prominent Kudumi samaj leader Mamata Mohanta has already visited the neighboring state and is expected to return for the election campaign.

Jharkhand shares a border with four districts of Odisha - Sundargarh, Keonjhar, Mayurbhanj, and Balasore. There is a significant population of Odia-speaking people in Jharkhand, and the visit of Odia leaders could have an impact on the voters there, as per a party leader. The state is home to lakhs of Odia-speaking people and their support could prove to be crucial in the upcoming assembly elections, which are due this year.
