In Odisha, a search is underway for a new Chief Minister's official residence following Naveen Patnaik's recent election loss to the BJP after a 24-year tenure. Patnaik, who worked from his personal home Naveen Niwas since becoming Chief Minister in 2000, set a unique precedent by not using a government-allocated house. The state administration is now scrutinizing several vacant quarters, including the current Chief Minister's Grievance Cell, to find a suitable official residence. Once a location is chosen, necessary renovations and facility installations will be undertaken. An announcement of the new BJP Chief Minister is imminent.
