Jay Panda, who owns an influential media empire, was a leading parliamentarian of the CM Naveen Patnaik-led BJD before he fell out with its leadership.
BJD, formerly perceived as being close to the Modi government, has of late been criticising it on issues such a triple talaq & Citizenship Amendment Bill.
With its allies driving a hard bargain and opposition parties huddling together to forge a front, BJP doesn’t want to antagonise relatively less unfriendly forces.
Despite growing passenger volume, 11 out of 14 carriers reported losses in 2023-24. IndiGo recorded profit of Rs 8,167 crore, which reduced to Rs 7.253 crore in 2024-25.

None of Pakistan’s PMs has lasted 5 years. That the current PM has given Asim Munir 5 years shows that of all military dictatorships history has seen, Pakistan’s is most creative.
Baijayanta Panda has been the blue eyed boy of Naveen Pattanaik from 1999.He has served him will all earnestness and loyalty.But he was ruined by Naveen Pattanaik once he fall out of him.He warned him about encroachment of all powers of CM by few Babus.But that cost him his post and Party.Now BJD is a Party of Tamilians.From Prabhakaran of Triveni to Pandian all hold Naveen imprisoned and rule.
Prabhakaran has so much powers in the corridor that he kidnapped and married an IAS lady officer of Odisha cadre.
After removal of P.M.Mohapatra to dustbin from sky by Naveen Pattanaik he gets support from Tamilians.
But on that fateful night when PMM raised rebellion against NP while he was at London,JP saved him and defeated PMM.
But fate is otherwise and he lost to babus.
BJD should be happy that he left them. I don’t know him except through his articles in newspapers. I always felt that he must have either bribed or used his influence to get those inane articles published.
Well he did not comment about content of shout which is important if your office is taking money behind your back what will you do

Anyone who joins or supports BJP has to be insensitive to crass and inhuman behavior. I didn’t know Jay Panda was that kind of a guy.
Whenever I read his columns in ToI, would check the blurb at the bottom, waiting for the third letter to flip from D to P.
