The News Insight: Barring some stray incidents, Odisha remains peaceful if we look at the scenario in States like West Bengal & Uttar Pradesh. The vindictive politics is at its worst in Bengal where both TMC and BJP workers clash everyday. While both parties suffer casualties, BJP is at the receiving end.

In UP, law and order is on a sharp decline. Neither common people nor media, is spared. Things are going from bad to worse. But, in Odisha, we can see peace, calm and no chest thumping. Improvement needed in Law and order. But, there is no panic, no big concerns. We are still living in peace.
