It is glad to know,Odisha Sun-Times spreads news and awreness on Odisha.
But more often than not, we see negative news,crimes get more high lighted n focus than positive , progressive issues that high light Odisha development issues or Achievement by Odisha or Odia people or Cultural strength, beautiful nature, Tourism potential
We draw your kind attention to focus, strength, positive, relevant issues.
Often it hurts,cwhen Odisha Sun-Times High lights Crime in Odisha more
Wish your news paper all the best.
