The state of Odisha, which has Bhubaneswar as its capital, is located on the eastern edge of the Indian subcontinent.
On April 1, the state will commemorate its 88th anniversary of its founding. About a decade before India gained independence from the British Raj, in the year 1936, the state of Odisha was established.

Odisha first rose to prominence in the third century, when Ashoka, the Mauryan monarch, invaded Kalinga, then known as Odisha.
