as a person from berhampur living in vizag, i have been noticing this but whenever i meet an odia and speak in odia, they usually speak either in english or hindi. i get it most NRO (non resident odias like me born in vizag) dont know much odia. but even in places like bhubaneswar or cuttack, i find native odias speaking in hindi mostly. idk why people from odisha arent proud to say their language and culture to others like south indians, marathis or punjabis. i am not exaggerating it that it should be compulsory to speak odia for those living in odisha. i am ok with non natives speaking in hindi but what about those who are native to odisha? are we refusing to say our own language just to look modern while killing our culture and tradition? be honest whats the issue in speaking in odia to other odias?

i recently got an interview call from tapmi few hours ago. they asked me to prepare a micro presentation before the interview (12th may). thats where i need help. how do u prepare a micro presentation? my father has no idea and none of the sources i found are sufficient. i also want to know what questions they will ask and i am from pcm background. worst part is i missed a board exam due to high fever so i will give exam again in month end. i am scared what if they ask me about 12th marks since i am from state board and results are released. i need help for micro presentation and what to speak in interview please. i got 207/400 in entrance test
