Naveen names woman leader Snehangini as BJD candidate for Nuapada
The Statesman Bhubaneswar
|October 16, 2025
BJD president Naveen Patnaik on Wednesday announced former minister and women’s wing president Snehangini Chhuria as the party’s candidate for the Nuapada assembly by-election.
Amid claims from several local aspirants, Patnaik’s decision to nominate Chhuria — who hails from outside the constituency — has raised eyebrows within political circles. “I declare Snehangini Chhuria, a strong leader from western Odisha who has served as a minister and held important portfolios, as our candidate,” said Patnaik, adding that she has been “an asset to the party” and has worked extensively for women and the poor.

Nepal’s Gen Z must be heard, understood
It is natural to want to analyse the events of September 8-9 in Nepal. Newspapers, online forums, webinar discussions and podcasts have all discussed the meaning of what happened. However, as with the post-earthquake discussions, people's responses tend to follow prior assumptions about how Nepal works. The biggest challenge is not to generate more ‘hot takes’ but to listen, understand what happened and why, and to question our assumptions about Nepal and Nepali politics, starting from the point of what and who we don’t know, instead of what we think we already do.
