Today is April 1st. It is celebrated as Utkala Dibasa i.e. Odisha Day.
You can read more about Odisha here.
Always nice to see positive news and reason for celebration trending, especially when it is related to our state.
As I type this, I find the hashtag #UtkalaDibasa trending at the fourth position in the list of India trends in Twitter.
I also find many tweeting using multiple spellings- Utkal, Utkala and Dibasa, Dibas, Divas, Divasa, Diwas, Diwasa and hashtags with a combination of these spellings!
Today is #UtkalaDibasa— Dr. Anita Sabat (@anitaexplorer) April 1, 2020
Utkala refers to #Odisha
Dibasa means "Day"
However, we find many different spellings being used in #media #socialmedia-
Utkal, Utkala
Dibas, Diwas, Diwasa, Divas, Divasa...
Need to update @Wikipedia entry.
Can everyone use uniform English spelling? pic.twitter.com/VJ0zjkFBr4
Though we have many tweets regarding Odisha Day celebration, as the English spellings in the hashtags used are different, the varied hashtags do not contribute to our trend.
If everyone used the same hashtag #UtkalaDibasa with the same spelling of "Utkala" & "Dibasa", #UtkalaDibasa could have been the top trend.
The following are some examples of tweets posted on April 1, 2020, where different hashtags like #UtkalaDibas, #UtkalDibas, #UtkalDivas, #UtkalDivasa, #UtkalaDivasa, & #UtkalDiwas have been used-
