    ODISHA, Contemporary name of the ancient kingdom of KALINGA,the Cultural heritage State of India is rich in history, culture, architectural masterpiece, temples, wildlife, natural resource and a large coastline.

    This thread especially for aspirants having ODISHA as home state or in any way related to it.
    I will be posting stuffs more oriented to OPSC Services Exams syllabus (for both Prelims and Mains)and those are necessary for UPSC.
    Following topics will be focussed:-
    ->State Specific Schemes and other important State Govt Decisions
    ->Tourism and Culture
    ->Unique practices (GI Tags news etc OR some innovative techniques example: GI of rasogulla win by odisha over W.B. )
    ->History of ODISHA
    ->Tribes of ODISHA

    • – This is the official thread for Odisha’s Current Affairs
    • – The thread is moderated by the owner and his/ her peers from the same state. What to expect here?
    • – State Specific Schemes and Initiatives (helps in GS answers and essays)
    • – Culture related stuff in news (helps you learn the static history part when the festival is celebrated + some additional info)
    • – Unique practices (GI Tags news etc OR some innovative techniques)
    • – Governance initiatives (some case study/ news of in-service officers)
    • – Anything which escapes the national conscience in general due to bias media coverage

    Why do we need separate threads for each state?
