Hi everyone, I'm happy to share that, Two more websites by Government of Odisha are now under Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International license. Both the websites were launched by Govt. marking the 70th anniversary of Bhubaneswar as the capital city of the state and till date Govt. has made seven of its websites under CC. Ps: This is the first time we didn't approach the officials for doing it and they've done it of their own will.

I'm happy to share that, continuing the collaboration with the Odia community, Today, the Government of Odisha has announced to release the content of two major departments; Information and Public Relations and ST & SC Development, Minorities & Backward Classes Welfare Dept. under Creative Commons license. Both the department has a huge collection of content and will help in improving a lot of Wikipedia articles. It was announced by the I&PR dept. and also by the Chief Minister's Office, https://twitter.com/CMO_Odisha/status/947838684874792960. The required changes will be made in the upcoming week.

Sailesh and all Odia community members,
This is an impressive accomplishment! Congrats!
Especially, the short turn-around time to take the decision is remarkable and it was a smart move to ask the social media account to be freely licensed.
