The election symbol of BJD is a conch that is turned towards the right. This has been the party’s symbol from the start. The conch has deep symbolism in ancient Hindu tradition. In Indian mythology, the conch, Panchajanya is the emblem of Lord Vishnu which signifies authority over all the 5 sections of the society, which is similar to BJD’s aim of reaching out to the poorest of the society. In general the conch has been a symbol of strength, sovereignty, authority and purity. Thus it has been chosen as a symbol by BJD.
Presenting to you few integral members of the party and few pearls of wisdom from them.

An once-booming hotspot of culture,
Succumbed to poverty, hardships, and disasters.
The thousands in pain cried for help
Thus emerged a revolutionary, Kharavela of Kalinga
Who served the state relentlessly
But destiny had it the other way and the leader had to depart.
Following his footsteps, the son then devised,
A party to uplift mother Odisha.
Equality, social justice, and dignity,
Are the few fruits,
Of the movement that is still in its roots.
An uphill task that we dream of,
The more we join, the faster we achieve.
Wait no more, let’s form the core
Lift the shanka, and join the lore.
