Odisha Chief Minister Naveen Patnaik said on Thursday that bureaucrat-turned-politician VK Pandian wasn’t his successor. He termed these speculations as “exaggerations”. Patnaik added that his successor will be chosen by the people of the state. Pandian, originally from Tamil Nadu, served as Patnaik’s private secretary for nearly 12 years before joining the Biju Janata Dal in 2023.
