Drawing the attention of the Central government, BJD MP Prasanna Acharya raised the issue during zero hour in the Rajya Sabha on Wednesday.

Acharya said the state’s name has been changed from Orissa to Odisha since a long and names of all state government offices and establishments have been following the new name accordingly.

He further said the high court of the state continues to retain the old name of Orissa till date. Since the high court’s name can be changed by a Central law, the MP demanded that the Centre should enact a special law to change the Orissa High Court to Odisha High Court.
