Happy Utkal Divas! Celebrating Odisha's Rich History and Identity_l

Today, on April 1st, we celebrate Utkal Divas, also known as Odisha Foundation Day! This special day marks the formation of Odisha as a separate state in 1936, after a long struggle for recognition and self-determination.

A Land Steeped in History

Odisha boasts a rich and ancient history. It was once part of the mighty Kalinga Empire, ruled by Emperor Ashoka in the 3rd century BC. The region flourished under leaders like Kharavela, who championed Jainism and expanded the kingdom's influence.

The Fight for a Separate Identity

Under British rule, Odisha lost its political identity and was incorporated into the Bengal Presidency. However, the Odia people never gave up their fight for recognition. The cultural organization Utkal Sammilani, led by Madhusudan Das, played a pivotal role in this movement.

: A Day of Celebration and Remembrance

On April 1st, 1936, Odisha finally emerged as a separate province, marking a significant milestone. Utkal Divas is a day to remember the sacrifices of those who fought for this cause, including Utkal Gouraba Madhusudan Das, Utkala Mani Gopabandhu Das, and many others.

Celebrating Odisha's Culture

Utkal Divas is a joyous occasion filled with cultural programs, traditional dances like Odissi, and mouthwatering Odia cuisine. It's a time for families to come together and celebrate their heritage.

Looking Ahead

Odisha continues to thrive as a vibrant state with a unique culture, rich traditions, and stunning natural beauty. Utkal Divas is a reminder of the state's resilience and its bright future.
