Odisha's weather in March has been tricky with frequent change in temperature pattern.

The weather would remain dry for next 72 hours, according to India Meteorological Department.

Temperature alert was given three days before that the weather would remain dry with dry air for next 48-72 hours.

The temperature would again rise by 2 to 3 degree Celsius after two days on an average and it will be more compared to last week.

Around 23rd march there are chances of thunderstorm and the temperature would fall with that.

During thunderstorm activity temperature is likely to decrease with the clouds and rainfall." "Malkangiri, Sundergarh and Boudh witnessed the highest temperature in the state with 38 degree Celsius within 24 hours and lowest temperature recorded in Phulbani with temperature of 14.8 degree Celsius.

Even after rise of temperature there would be a slight difference, it would remain normal," he added.

Bill Gates arrives in Bhubaneshwar, visits slum and interacts with residents | Watch here | Oneindia

On Wednesday morning, Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates, alongside state government officials, made a notable visit to a slum in Bhubaneswar, Odisha. Their destination was the Biju Adarsh Colony in the Maa Mangla Basti, where they engaged directly with the residents. Gates' purpose extended beyond a mere inspection of living conditions; he also took the opportunity to interact closely with women's self-help groups (SHGs) that operate within the area. This visit underscores the collaborative efforts between various departments of the state government and the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation. Together, they are striving to address critical issues within marginalised communities, particularly focusing on empowerment initiatives led by women's SHGs. The presence of such a prominent figure as Bill Gates highlights the importance of these grassroots efforts and signals a commitment to fostering positive change and inclusive development in Odisha's urban areas. #BillGates #NaveenPatnaik #BhubaneshwarVisit #SlumInteraction #CommunityEngagement #ResidentInteraction #Philanthropy #UrbanDevelopment #CommunityEmpowerment #SocialImpact #HumanitarianEfforts #BhubaneshwarCommunity #InclusiveDevelopment #CommunityOutreach #EmpoweringCommunities #BillGatesInIndia #CommunityBuilding #HumanitarianVisit #SocialChange #BhubaneshwarImpact #BuildingBetterCommunities ~HT.99~PR.152~ED.194~
