Dilip Ray Reveals: 'Planned to Contest Rajya Sabha for Three Months, Discussed with 7-8 MLAs & Senior Leaders'

Newly elected Rajya Sabha MP Dilip Ray, the BJP-backed Independent who won amid massive cross-voting in Odisha's polls, disclosed that he had been planning his candidacy for the past three months. He held discussions with 7-8 MLAs and other senior leaders to secure support, which ultimately materialized with cross-votes from at least 8 BJD and 3 Congress legislators, helping him defeat the BJD-Congress joint candidate. Ray emphasized this was a well-thought-out strategy rather than last-minute horse-trading, echoing his 2002 victory. Senior leader Bijay Mohapatra backed this, stating the groundwork was laid three months ago. The revelation has intensified debates on internal dissent in BJD and Congress, with parties issuing suspensions and show-cause notices to cross-voters.
