In Bhubaneswar, Odisha CM Mohan Majhi-led BJP government renamed the 'Biju Patnaik Sports Award' to 'Odisha Rajya Krida Samman,' first time dropping former CM Biju's name from an initiative. The sports and youth affairs department issued a Friday notification. This highest sports honor, instituted by Naveen Patnaik's government, sparked a political war between BJP and BJD, reports Sandip Mishra.
