This is good for all of India even though it is for a regional language,

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.
