The &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;Biju Janata Dal&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; ({{trans|[[Biju Patnaik|Biju]] [[Janata Dal]]}}; {{small|abbr.}} &amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;BJD&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;) is a [[Regionalism (politics)|regional]] [[political party]] in the [[India]]n [[Federated state|state]] of [[Odisha]] founded and led by [[Naveen Patnaik]], the current [[List of Chief Ministers of Odisha|Chief Minister of Odisha]] and the son of former Chief Minister of Odisha [[Biju Patnaik]], after whom the party is named. It was founded on 26 December 1997.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;The Times of India 2019&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{cite web | title=Biju village protects Patnaik legacy, stands firmly behind BJD - Bhubaneswar News | website=The Times of India | date=16 April 2019 | url=https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/bhubaneswar/biju-village-protects-patnaik-legacy-stands-firmly-behind-bjd/articleshow/68896432.cms | access-date=6 September 2019}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Electoral record ==&lt;br /&gt;
BJD won nine seats in the [[1998 Indian general election|1998 general election]] and Naveen was named the [[Ministry of Mines (India)|Minister for Mines]]. In the [[1999 Indian general election|1999 general elections]], BJD won 10 seats. The party won a majority of seats in the state legislative assembly in the 2000 and 2004 elections in alliance with [[Bharatiya Janata Party|BJP]]. The party won 11 [[Lok Sabha]] seats in the 2004 elections.&lt;br /&gt;
In the aftermath of Kandhamal Riots, in the [[2009 Indian general election|2009 general election]] the BJD parted ways with the BJP for both the Lok Sabha and Assembly citing communalism and differences in seat sharing. In the 2009 Indian general election, BJD won 14 seats and secured strong 108 legislative seats out of 147 seats in assembly election of 2009. Biju Janata Dal won a huge victory in the [[2014 Indian general election|2014 general election]] securing 20 of the 21 [[Lok Sabha]] seats and 117 of 147 [[Odisha Legislative Assembly]] seats.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Moneycontrol 2019&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{cite web | title=Naveen Patnaik: Defying Modi wave, Odisha&amp;#039;s &amp;#039;Mr Clean&amp;#039; wins 5th straight term | website=Moneycontrol | date=23 May 2019 | url=https://www.moneycontrol.com/news/india/naveen-patnaik-odishas-mr-clean-wins-a-5th-straight-term-defying-odds-3740121.html | access-date=6 September 2019}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; They were re-elected to power in Odisha in 2019, winning 112 of the 147 seats in the Odisha state assembly; however, their seats in the Lok Sabha reduced to 12.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Cite web|last=May 24|first=TNN /|last2=2019|last3=Ist|first3=20:54|title=Odisha Election Results 2019: BJD wins 112 assembly seats, BJP settles at 23 {{!}} Bhubaneswar News - Times of India|url=https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/bhubaneswar/odisha-elections-2019-results-highlights/articleshow/69453821.cms|access-date=2021-06-23|website=The Times of India|language=en}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Cite web|url=https://www.ndtv.com/elections/odisha-lok-sabha-election-results-2019|title=Odisha Lok Sabha Election Results 2019|website=NDTV.com}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Policies and ideology==&lt;br /&gt;
BJD claims to be inspired by the philosophy of [[Biju Patnaik]] with strict adherence towards Secularism, Social Democracy, Social Equality and Social Justice. It does not claim any political ideology but if one goes through its policies, then the party sides with centre-left vision with Welfarism being a bigger chunk of the party&amp;#039;s identity. Being a regional party, development of [[Odisha]] is its prime goal. The party has been in consistent opposition to the [[Indian National Congress]] (INC) which ruled the state for decades.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Encyclopedia Britannica&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{cite web | title=Biju Janata Dal | website=Encyclopedia Britannica | url=https://www.britannica.com/topic/Biju-Janata-Dal | access-date=6 September 2019}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;PTI 2019&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{cite web | author=PTI | title=We will not adopt the equal distance policy any more, says BJD&amp;#039;s SN Patro | website=@businessline | date=17 May 2019 | url=https://www.thehindubusinessline.com/news/elections/we-will-not-adopt-the-equal-distance-policy-any-more-says-bjds-sn-patro/article27163921.ece | access-date=6 September 2019}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Dal 1997&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{cite web | last=Dal | first=Biju Janata | title=Manifesto | website=BJD:: Biju Janata Dal | date=26 December 1997 | url=http://www.bjdodisha.org.in/content/party/manifesto/ | access-date=6 September 2019}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
