@Soujendrapatra @TheGreatAshB Found "Mudhi Mansa" as classic breakfast of warriors even by Ashoka's army. Except some news items, is there any concrete evidence on it. Need this for one Odisha focused Non Fiction Book on Nutrition.

@TheGreatAshB I can share the academic PDFs, especially the sections discussing the Bhanja linkages and the queens. I can post a Drive link here or share them any way that’s convenient for you.

Looking for information on the Bhauma Kara Dynasty

@ocfodisha @basanta Thank you so much @ocfodisha for this honour. #nutrition #foodsystems

@basantak @Basanta Kumar Kar @Basanta Kumar Kar It gives us immense pleasure and honor to welcome Shri Basanta Kumar Kar as an Advisor to the Odisha Corporate Foundation (OCF).

I’ve just shared a post on LinkedIn about the WHO’s updated Healthy Diet Factsheet (26 January 2026). It highlights why nutrition is central to health and development, and why India must act urgently given the rise of processed foods, micronutrient deficiencies, and the double burden of malnutrition. Do take a look — I’d value your thoughts and engagement. linkedin.com/posts/rajan-sa… @UNICEFIndia @BMGFIndia @WorldBankIndia @WHO @basantak @GHS @tatatrusts @MinistryWCD @MoHFW_INDIA @fssaiindia

@RajanSankar1 I can relate @RajanSankar1 Sir. Bangladesh Oil Fortification Law had to face similar hurdles even after it was passed by the Parliament in 2013. Later, it was stayed by the Court. With strong evidences, legal rationale and   Political WILL, we could clear the Court hurdles.

A recent court ruling in India threatens decades of progress against iodine deficiency. Why is lifting the ban on non-iodised salt a massive risk for our children's cognitive development? The data tells a clear story.
