Hi Sailesh,

Thanks for the news. This is really a great initiative from the Odisha
government and this will definitely be marked as a model to be followed by
others around the world for the purpose of making knowledge free and
available. Thanks to the entire Odia community.

Regards,
Tanweer

 Hi everyone,
I'm happy to share that, Two more websites by Government of Odisha are now
under Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International license. Both the
websites were launched by Govt. marking the 70th anniversary of Bhubaneswar
as the capital city of the state and till date Govt. has made seven of its
websites under CC.
Ps: This is the first time we didn't approach the officials for doing it
and they've done it of their own will.

Thank you, Ravi and Isaac!|

I'm happy to share that, continuing the collaboration with the Odia
community, Today, the Government of Odisha has announced to release the
content of two major departments;  Information and Public Relations and ST
& SC Development, Minorities & Backward Classes Welfare Dept.  under
Creative Commons license. Both the department has a huge collection of
content and will help in improving a lot of Wikipedia articles.
It was announced by the I dept. and also by the Chief Minister's Office,
https://twitter.com/CMO_Odisha/status/947838684874792960. The required
changes will be made in the upcoming week.

Sailesh and all Odia community members,

This is an impressive accomplishment! Congrats!

Especially, the short turn-around time to take the decision is remarkable
and it was a smart move to ask the social media account to be freely
licensed.

Yes, but it is also good for absolutely all of us. We need rare photographs
from Odisha (and of all the notable people Odisha state officials meet
with) illustrating Wikipedia (and Wikidata, Wikivoyage etc.) in *all*
languages.

Some photos already on Commons are already used on wikis in languages other
than the languages of India (which includes English, of course).

Kudos to the entire passionate Odia community for this precedent-setting
achievement.

Hi Lane,

Thank you so much for your kind words,

It is all because of the active participation of the community members in
such initiative and also their effort in making these collaborations
successful.

l also believe that the WikiTungi program by the Odia community has helped
in making the  presence of the movement in the state and spread awareness
of the movement in Odisha. The community members in WikiTungi meetups are
very active and is a good platform for the community to learn and share
about the movement.

This is really progressive and unusual.

Years ago when The Centre for Internet & Society began focused outreach to
the Odia community I did not expect great progress and precedents. This is
a big deal beyond what I imagined could happen so quickly. Everyone
involved should be proud.

This is good for all of India even though it is for a regional language,
because it will make it for other organizations and government offices to
follow the model.
