Notes

The 2011 Odisha Reference Annual mentions the 1957 elected MLA, Surendramohan Hembram as belonging to the Gana Parishad. This is inconsistent with the detailed Statistical Report by ECI, which mentions the same elected MLA, but as being an Independent politician.
Similarly, the 2011 Odisha Reference Annual mentions the 1971 elected MLA, Sashibhusan Marndi as being an Independent politician. This is inconsistent with the detailed Statistical Report by ECI, which mentions the same elected MLA, but as belonging to the Jharkhand Party.
