About this ebook

For three days, Raja, an essentially agrarian festival, becomes an occasion for everyone, particularly women, to blend tradition with some fun activities and traditional delicacies. This year’s Raja celebration comes with more than the usual share of anticipation, with people anxious to put the COVID 19 pandemic behind them. The tradition-rich festival is the theme for our Cover Story this time. The 2018 judgement scrapping Section 377 of the Indian Penal Code (IPC) was a landmark when it came to the rights of the LGBTQ+ community but it takes more than just changes in laws for mindsets to change. In City Beat, we explore how this community still has to bear the brunt of cultural and socio-economic prejudices and discrimination. City Beat also takes a close look at a practice that remains an area of concern despite being declared illegal. Yes, we are talking about ragging of fresh students in colleges and other institutions of higher education across Odisha. Our CityZen for this edition is Aastha Mohapatra, who is regarded as the first opera singer from Odisha. Her journey has been an inspiring one -- from Hindustani classical music to the Mozart Children’s Choir of India to the global opera circuit. Our special feature on World Environment Day focuses on green homes for a sustainable future. The good news is that a growing number of people are now interested in this concept. We bring you some tips on how to go about planning your dream green home. Over the past few years, short-format video content has become highly popular on social media platforms like Instagram and YouTube. In City Lights, we catch up with a bunch of newage comic content creators. They are young, innovative, and eager to move away from what used to pass off as comedy in the decades gone past. Over the past two years, the COVID 19 pandemic had an impact on almost every sphere of life and the entertainment industry was no exception. But with things looking up now, Ollywood is all set for a flurry of film releases in the Raja season. We bring you all the details in Screen Shots.
