党員同士の対立が深まる中,前任者らがパトナイクを主張する中でBJDはパトナーイクのためにイベントを開催している. BJD holds events for Patnaik as former leaders claim his legacy, deepening rift after MLAs cross-voted.

ビジュ・パトナイク氏の死去記念日に,BJDは全州で活動を行い 故のリーダーを称賛した. On Biju Patnaik's death anniversary, the BJD held state-wide events honoring their late leader. 同時に,党の元指導者たちはパトナイクの遺産がすべてのオディア人に属していると主張するライバル集会を組織した. Simultaneously, former party leaders organized a rival gathering to claim Patnaik's legacy belongs to all Odias. 反対党の集会にBJDが参加し,パトナイクの記憶を独占的に支配するようになった. The rift deepened when several BJD MLAs who cross-voted recently attended the opposition event, leading the BJD to reject the alternative gathering and assert exclusive control over Patnaik's memory.
