The bypoll was necessitated following the death of BJD MLA and former Speaker Kishore Mohanty.
Radharani Panda was elected to the Assembly from Brajarajnagar in 2014. She had defeated BJD candidate Anup Kumar Sai by 6,750 votes.
However, she lost the 2019 polls to Kishore Mohanty by 11,634 votes. Congress did not have a candidate then.
