The Twelfth Orissa Legislative Assembly was convened after 2000 Orissa Legislative Assembly election. National Democratic Alliance led by Naveen Patnaik formed government for first time.
Brief history Due to poor handling of 1999 Odisha cyclone and rise in corruption & criminal cases etc. led to rise of unpopularity of Congress, which eventually led to their dismissal performance in 2000 election. Chief Minister Naveen Patnaik along with his council of ministers were sworn in by Governor M. M. Rajendran on 5 March 2000. The BJD had the larger share of representation in the ministry with 16 ministers including the Chief Minister while the BJP had 9. Cabinet reshuffle took place on 6 August 2002 with induction of 8 new ministers. Assembly was dissolved early almost a year ahead & election were called in line with 2004 Indian general election. NDA lost the general election but won 2004 Orissa Assembly election. Shri Patnaik resigned on 15 May 2004 paving way for new govt.
