From the point of the orginal Hindutva of kShtriya vareity -- Orissa remains unmatched. Not even karNATaka comes close. One region besides kAmarUpa that moslems never managed to penetrate, subjugate or convert is Orissa. While vijayanagara gets some attention on the pages of history for securing dakShiNApatha for over two centuries from jehAdI-s, we are not taught anything at all about the valiant struggle of contemporary ga~NgA-s that continued to secure this bastion of Hindus largely unabated from Islam. Like vijayanagara rose in utter defiance, so also Orissa, parallelly and independently. It is unfortunate that history is largely silent on their tumultuous ocean-like raise for the defence their Hindu country, wave after wave. These Fierce Oriya-s of course paid huge costs for this defiance by their blood, but conclusively frustrated the moslem onslaught for centuries. The final destruction of vijayanagara and that of Orissa at the hands of ghAZI-s are almost parallel.
It took the mlechCha-s to really quell the spirit of these Hindus. They were first mass-murdered through starvation and disease, and then subjected to conversions -- which too, unlike south, bore little result -- Orissa even today remains largely Hindu.
Hindutva should naturally come to the inner AuDra-s. It is just that BJP has a wrong wavelength, and its confused leaders would not appeal here. Hard to imagine how they react to the BJP leader providing "healing-touch" to christians of kandhamal?
