    The Congress party, meanwhile faces a tough challenge to better its performance after disappointing results in the last two elections.

    After two months of campaigning, the intense race for state elections will wrap up today.

    PM Modi, Union Home Minister Amit Shah, Rajnath Singh campaigned across the state for the saffron party, while the Congress organized a rally led by the party president Mallikarjun Kharge, party leaders Rahul Gandhi and Priyanka Gandhi.

    Patnaik, who has been struggling with severe health issues due to old age, too campaigned in person and in virtual mode along with his aide VK Pandian.

    Modi and Patnaik, who have had cordial relations for years, sparred with each other after the PM claimed that the latter's health has "deteriorated" and there could be a "conspiracy behind it".

    In a a strong rebuttal, Patnaik advised the PM to instead focus on revision of coal royalties for the state and the longstanding demand for special status to Odisha.

    The Odisha CM is seeking re-election from his traditional Assembly seat of Hinjili as well as the newly chosen Kantabanji constituency.

    In its election manifesto, the saffron party highlighted its achievements during its 10-year rule at the Centre, focusing on schemes for farmers and tribals. The BJD manifesto emphasized youth employment, support for the middle class, food security, and agriculture. Meanwhile, the Congress focused on addressing unemployment and called for a socio-economic and caste census.

    The counting of votes will take place on June 4, and the results will be announced the same day.

    In the 2019 Assembly elections, BJP made remarkable strides, securing 23 seats, a notable leap from its 10-seat tally in 2014. Congress on the other hand experienced a decline, securing just 9 seats in 2019 and slipping to the third largest party in the state. This was a drop from the 16 seats it held in 2014.

    Now, all attention turns to the Odisha Assembly elections exit poll.
