ABOUT THE ODISHA LIVING LEGEND AWARDS

Odisha Living Legend Awards, established by OdishaDiary (OD) in 2011, is a novel way to acknowledge and honour great contributions to the state of Odisha. In 2012 we added an award for inspired young minds to connect the youth force with the living legends of our state. The objective has been to build future legends. This year in 2013 we have added one more award to recognize great and inspiring initiatives in the business sphere of Odisha. The event will be live webcast on our website and the recorded proceedings will be on our YouTube channel.

OD being the leading news-portal on Odisha with more than 60,000 daily readers is uniquely positioned to make an impact through these awards. OdishaDiary, the pioneer in online news on Odisha, was founded on 11 November 2005. In last eight years OD has fast entrenched itself in the lives of a young and dynamic readership on Odisha throughout the globe. Nevertheless, OdishaDiary’s central focus remains on the lived experiences of Odias and their overall social, political, economic and spiritual development.

On 11th November 2013 OD completes eight years of its successful operation and enters its ninth year. The idea has been to celebrate the success stories of Odias. Like last year this year the function will be held in the state capital Bhubaneswar at Jaydev Bhawan, on November 13, 2013, 6 P.M. On this occasion OdishaDiary will honour distinguished personalities, youth and business leaders from different fields of Odisha.

The Odisha Living Legend and Youth Inspiration and Odisha Inc awardees will be nominated and/or selected by a committee/team of experts constituted by the OdishaDiary. If required the committee or a group of members of the “Awards Committee” may undertake a field visit to get firsthand knowledge of achievements claimed by a reader/nominator/awards committee in support of their entry for the award. OD team has conducted extensive telephonic conversation with independent panel members located in India and abroad to prepare a final list. On the basis of past exemplary work, impact and legacy Odisha Diary Team reserves the right to select any individual or institution even when there is no nomination from the awards committee and OdishaDiary readers.
