It completed full 5 year term and in 1995 elections it lost by winning 30% seats, giving way to Congress. It is believed that one of the main reasons was, the then excise minister Prasanna Acharya banned alcoholic and tobacco products in 1992. It is believed, those who were addicted to it, voted for Congress in following elections of 1995. Congress, after coming to power, withdrew the ban. It justified that State Govt. will earn revenue from this business. It accused, the JD is depriving the state from economic prosperity and it is prioritising the Coastal Belt instead of Tribal belt. But Congress itself couldn't work for economic progress or Tribal development, when it came to power. The Janata CM Sri Biju Pattanaik had criticised the tribal districts as, "not even capable of having built a cycle factory, what steel plant would be built?" So JD lost tribal votes.
