The results of the poll is out.

As clarified earlier, the aim was not to rank these great people but to gauge how we see today, the type of contributions they made & that differed from each other.

But I could n't elaborate earlier w/o the risk of influencing the poll results.
So, let us take a look at the results.

MadhuBabu wins by a wide margin, as expected. That is not surprising. He was the first one to consciously articulate Odia identity and succeeded to a great extent.
His efforts not just led to formation of a separate Odia state, but, for the first time, made Odias aware of their rights and conscious of their identity. He was also the first one in modern Odisha to explicitly argue that ShriJagannath can be the symbol of Odia identity.
