Comments from @root
- – 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?
