+1 Swaroop, even the UI is somewhat similar but doesn't cause any harm, but the name "Wikipedia" and the usage of the logo is not permitted.

As I understand it, the text is not licensed to WMF, but we've definitely got a case with the logo.

No Swaroop, the logo is a modification version of original Wikipedia Odia logo and can't be in a CC-BY-SA, the admin has to remove it by all chances as it is a WMF's copyrighted logo and can't be used anywhere except foundation's work.
