It may be recalled that the record for the longest tenure as Chief Minister also belongs to Naveen Patnaik of Orissa, who was voted by about 79 per cent (78.81) of the people in the poll. On the other hand, BJP-ruled Uttarakhand Chief Minister Trivendra Singh Rawat got only 0.41 per cent votes. In other words, Rawat is the worst administrator in the country.

The results were released in the IANS Sea-Water Stay of the Nation-2021 survey. In Orissa, 68.57 per cent people were happy with Patnaik's work. 20 percent were perfectly happy and ten percent were annoyed. Out of 77 per cent votes received by Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal, 57 per cent were very satisfied, 31 per cent were perfectly satisfied and 11 per cent were dissatisfied.
