In Puri, Odisha, a historic Rath Yatra was held where the Trinity- Lord Jagannath and his siblings- were taken out from the 12th century temple to their respective chariots. This event was attended by President Droupadi Murmu, Odisha Governor Raghubar Das, Chief Minister Mohan Majhi, and other prominent figures. However, the joy and celebration were marred by the unfortunate death of a male devotee and injuries sustained by others during the pulling of the chariots. Despite this, the rituals continued with Mangala Alati and Mailama niti, making for an unforgettable and historic festival.
The BJP government in Odisha has kept its word by throwing open all four entrance gates of Puri's Jagannath Temple for devotees, as promised in their election manifesto. CM Mohan Charan Majhi and his council of ministers ensured the opening of the gates after performing the 'Mangal Aarti' rituals. This move has been welcomed by the devotees who have been expressing strong resentment over the issue for a long time. The government has also assured to address other issues related to the temple's management.
After the recent formation of the BJP government in Odisha, Chief Minister Mohan Majhi has been working tirelessly to address the needs of his constituents. He has been meeting with citizens, listening to their grievances, and ensuring that their issues are being dealt with promptly. Not only does CM Majhi work long hours, but he also shows great compassion and empathy towards those who meet with him, such as the specially-abled Arjun Nayak. Even on Sundays, the Chief Minister's temporary office remains filled with people seeking his assistance, demonstrating his commitment to serving the people of Odisha.
Indian athletes, including Olympian Dutee Chand and Odisha CM Mohan Charan Majhi, joined the nation in celebrating the 10th International Day of Yoga. Prime Minister Narendra Modi led the event in Srinagar, Jammu and Kashmir, promoting the ancient practice of yoga for its profound impact on both physical and mental well-being. From the Ladakh Open Football Stadium to the New Terminal building of Pune International Airport, athletes and officials came together to unite in the practice of yoga on a global scale.
In a highly anticipated announcement, four-time MLA Mohan Majhi has been chosen as the Chief Minister of Odisha after the BJP won a monumental victory in the state. However, there is controversy surrounding the selection, as one of the deputy CMs, Amit Malviya, is currently embroiled in a scandal involving sexual misconduct allegations. The opposition parties are rallying against Malviya and demanding a probe, while he has sent a legal notice to the accuser. Amidst the chaos, Majhi has been named the new CM while Malviya himself has yet to respond to the situation.
Mohan Charan Majhi, a seasoned politician with a humble background, has been unanimously elected as the new chief minister of Odisha by the BJP. This decision, seen as a masterstroke by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, reflects the party's efforts to balance regional aspirations and appease marginalized groups. Majhi, from the tribal community, has a track record of fighting for the rights of tribals and will also have two deputy chief ministers, adding to the party's efforts of inclusivity. This historic move has been met with mixed reactions, but many are hopeful for Majhi's leadership in the state.
Mohan Majhi, a four-time MLA from Keonjhar and a prominent adivasi face of the Bharatiya Janata Party, has been named as the first tribal chief minister of Odisha. Along with Majhi, two deputy chief ministers – KV Singh Deo and Pravati Parida – have also been announced by the BJP government. This marks a historic moment for Odisha, as it will have a tribal CM after 1999, and also a woman deputy CM for the first time in its history.
In a historic decision, Mohan Majhi has been declared as the Chief Minister-elect of Odisha by the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP).

The swearing-in ceremony is scheduled to take place on June 12 and will be attended by top BJP leaders, including Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
In a surprise move, the Bharatiya Janata Party has chosen tribal leader Mohan Charan Majhi to be the new chief minister of Odisha. Along with him, KV Singh Deo and Pravati Parida have been appointed as the deputy chief ministers of the state. This decision was taken at a BJP legislature party meeting attended by Defence Minister Rajnath Singh and Union minister Bhupender Yadav. The 52-year-old Majhi defeated the Biju Janata Dal candidate from the Keonjhar assembly constituency with a margin of 11,577 votes.
