#Cuttack | Body of Chandrika Hembram, a third-year MBBS student at Fakir Mohan Medical College and Hospital, was recovered from Kathajodi River in Cuttack.
She was killed in a pre-planned manner by her boyfriend Bhimsen Prasad Tudu & his new girlfriend Swati, Chandrika's mother has alleged. #Odisha
The delusion is sending me. Siddhamātrika is the common ancestor of Odia, Bengali & Assamese. Mayurbhanj has been the Odia heartland of the Bhanja kings for 1,000+ years. Modern Bengali didn't even stabilize until the 18th-century printing press.
Go read a book maybe?
Lol Siddhamatrika is proto-Bengali script in which Bengali Pala emperor Devapala's inscriptions have been found in West Bengal-Bihar border. This newly found inscription is from the same period.
Bengali monarchs ruled over much of Eastern India & Northern India for a long period in the medieval & ancient periods of Indian history.
My daughter was 5 when my SaaS took her aside and told her your mother is mad. My daughter hates her to this day. Thank God I have a daughter and not a son. Son would be bitching about me on Twitter wanting to bond with my SaaS. Imagine draining my blood to birth such monster.
Indian cattle, Indian mouse, Indian crow all consistently tell the OIT story.
Narmada is (Narman Da --literally giver of civilization)
Sanskrit is absolutely precise.
And Narmada has flown in that river basin for, if I remember correctly, 100,000 years!
Mother of humanity.
Fortunately yes. The tradition of Visnu Puranas Thuban as Dhruva was at around 2300 BCE and was observed in the IVC. The RV description of the rivers matches that at the times of IVC.
Those who don't know, this is Siddham or Siddhamatraka script or Kutila script which is the ancestor of proto Odia, proto Assamese and proto Bangla scripts.
Siddham script is used in western and northern India too. For example Harsha's Banskhera plate.
Here is the official Odia script evolution process. Check this official image from state museum.
Congratulations @OilIndiaLimited !
An ocean of energy opportunities reinforced in the Andaman Sea!
Very happy to report the presence of natural gas in Sri Vijayapuram-3 an exploratory well drilled by Oil India Ltd. 15 km off the east coast of the Andaman Islands at a water depth of 355 meters.
Initial production testing of the well at the depth of 1900 plus meters in the Eocene formation has established the presence of natural gas through continuous flaring.
Oil India is carrying out gas sampling to assess the composition & calorific value of gas and to carry out isotope studies to understand the genesis of the gas.
Under the Samudra Manthan Mission (National Deep Water Exploration Mission) announced by Hon’ble PM @narendramodi Ji on Independence Day 2025, large number of deepwater & Ultra deepwater exploration wells are planned in our offshore basins to fully exploit our hydrocarbon reserves.
Presence of hydrocarbon is now reported in 2(Two) wells out of 3 (Three) exploratory wells drilled by OIL in current exploratory campaign off Andaman Basin.
This presence of natural gas will help us in taking forward our exploration ambitions in coordination with global deepwater exploration experts like @petrobras, @TotalEnergies, @bp_india, @Shell, @exxonmobil and will be a significant milestone in our journey through Amrit Kaal!

The inscription here is clearly in the Bengali script, not Odia. What's so very interesting is that the morphology of the Bengali script has hardly changed over the past 1300 years (or more).
It once again highlights that Mayurbhanja has historically been part of the Bengali cultural & linguistic sphere. It was wrongly merged with Odisha in 1949.
Kshatriyas of Odisha were among the most successful Indians against early Turks resisting them for 300 years and crushing them in major battles
>Emperor Kharavela even forced prime Greeks to retreat we must glorify our history instead of praising Turks Mughals and their allies

Friends, I have great news. I have been selected for the 27th conference of the European Association for South Asian Archaeology and Art from 6-10 July, 2026. The title of my paper : “Garhwa: An Early Centre of the Rāma
Cult.”
In 2024, I discovered the oldest known Ram temple Prashasti at this site, with the evidence of Ram worship at this site going as far back as the 5th century in the Gupta era. As an independent researcher, I am seeking support to help cover the expenses associated with attending the conference, including:
• International airfare
• Accommodation in Belgium
• Conference registration fees
• Visa and travel insurance
• Local transportation and subsistence expenses
Every contribution, regardless of size, will directly support my participation in this important academic event and help ensure that Indian archaeological and cultural research is represented on a global platform. Much thanks
After careful consideration, it has been decided that all committees of the All India Trinamool Congress in West Bengal, as well as all its frontal organisations, shall stand dissolved with immediate effect.
The party will undertake a comprehensive exercise of introspection, performance review and organisational assessment at every level. Based on the findings of this exercise, the organisational structure of the parent body and all frontal organisations will be reconstituted and announced in due course.
The party remains committed to strengthening its organisation and preparing it to meet future challenges with renewed vigour and purpose.
