In a grievous loss to the political landscape, senior BJP leader and former MLA Aditya Madhi died at a hospital on Wednesday. He was 50 years old.

Madhi had secured a seat in the state assembly from Malkangiri constituency in 2019, though he was denied a ticket in the recent election, which saw Narsingh Madkami claim the seat instead.

The news has garnered condolences from political leaders, including Odisha Chief Minister Mohan Charan Majhi and Union Minister Dharmendra Pradhan. Majhi, Speaker Surama Padhy, and several ministers paid their last respects at the assembly premises.

Chief Minister Majhi noted that while Madhi had recovered from a COVID-19 infection, he continued to battle other health complications. Madhi was deeply respected for his notable contributions to the BJP, particularly in the Malkangiri region.
