It's been exactly a month since Odisha's Foundation Day or #UtkalaDibasa. I know all you folks have been eagerly awaiting the results of #UtkalaDibasaQuiz #Contest!
Today, I feel privileged to bring you the winners of #UtkalaDibasaQuiz #Contest hosted by me since April 1st 2015!
I've got an overwhelming response of 32 entries in all! Of these, only 21 are valid entries while 11 are incomplete ones and sadly had to be rejected.
Of the 21 entries, 16 are all correct! Kudos to the Odisha knowledge of all these participants!
It was a very difficult time to select the best slogans out of these 16 entries as each of them were indeed so good! Again, winners have been selected based on whether they are still following @Toshali_Resorts and @Odisha_Tourism - our sponsors! So after a lot of hard labour on Labour Day, here are the deserving winners of the Grand Prizes!
Winner of Grand Prize #1 [Couple 2N/3D Stay at Toshali Sands, Puri sponsored by Toshali Resorts]:
Prateek Pattanaik - @shrijagannatha
Winner of Grand Prize #2 [Couple 2N/3D Stay at Toshali Resort, Ratnagiri sponsored by Toshali Resorts]:
