[SEP] Knowledge 2: Gopal Chhotray
Gopal Chhotray (1916–2003) was born in Puranagarh village of Jagatsinghpur district in Odisha, India.He is considered to be one of the chief architects of modern Oriya theatre.He brought in significant changes in the morphology ofOriya plays, both in theme and structure.He rescued them from the hold of opera and melodrama, and the overbearing influence of neighbouring Bengal.Gopal Chhotray dominated the Oriya professional theatre for more than three decades.Beginning with Pheria (Come Back) in 1946, he wrote more than 15 original stage plays and 8 adaptations of eminent Oriya novels, most of which were runaway success in professional stage.There were days, when both the professional theaters of Cuttack, holding daily shows, used to stage his plays concurrently.Apart from adapting works of eminent Odia novelists like Upendra Kishore Das (Mala Janha), Basanta Kumari Patnaik (Amadabata), Kanhu Charana Mohanty (Jhanja) and former Chief Minister of Odisha Dr. Harekrushna Mahtab (Pratibha), he also adapted Sarat Chandra Chattopadhyay's ‘Ramer Sumati’, Henrik Ibsen's 'Enemy of the People',A A Milne's 'Man in the Bowler Hat', Henry Fielding's 'Mock Doctor', and the English thriller 'The Evil That Men Do'.Gopal Chhotray was associated with All India Radio (AIR), Cuttack since its inception in 1948.After years of writing as a freelancer, he joined AIR, Cuttack as an in-house script writer in 1956 and worked till 1975.He wrote more than half a thousand radio plays, including musicals and features, and made listening to his works a household habit.His monthly serial 'Purapuri Paribarika'(Entirely A Family Matter), which ran uninterrupted for three years, was perhaps the earliest chain-play the AIR produced.While in Radio, Gopal Chhotray made a unique contribution to the Odia musical tradition by reviving rural opera, which had gone out of fashion, and was frowned by the city bred and puritans.He brought both popularity and respectability for this genre by adapting them for broadcast by the AIR in 1960.He restored Baisnab Pani, the doyen of Odia Jatra, to his legitimacy and started an upsurge in musical plays by building up a large repertoire, consisting of his own originals and adaptations.He has nearly twenty LP records and cassettes of his own work including the all-time best 'Srimati Samarjani' which he produced for the radio with Akshaya Mohanty, based on Fakir Mohan Senapati's short story 'Patent Medicine'.It continues to be a listening rage even after 40 years.He was also pivotal in designing the dramatic contents of the Odisha Doordarshan when TV came to the State.He nurtured its foundation at Cuttack and continued to sustain it after it shifted to Bhubaneswar.He scripted nearly a hundred plays and features for the State TV, including serials and a memorable mythological called 'Devi Durga'.He started his career as an amateur stage artist in Bharati Theatres in Cuttack, but soon became the foremost playwright and film script writer for the Odia stage and films respectively.After 'Pheria', his early plays in the 50s, such as 'Bharasa' and 'Para Kalam', were recognized as unique creations.His instant recognition for film script writing came with the production of the mega mythological 'Sri Jagannath' in 1950.In the next thirty five years, he wrote screenplays and dialogues for a number of 'middle of the road' cinemas, combining class and box office hits. 'Amadabata', 'Kie Kahara', 'Matira Manisha' and 'Badhu Nirupama' had received high critical acclaim for his dialogues and treatment.When professional theatre withered away in Odisha and the State radio lost out its monopoly to private broadcasting and TV channels of doubtful quality, Gopal Chhotray, devoted himself to writing of short stories to respond to his creative urge.He published two volumes of his work, comprising about thirty stories, which were actually embryonic of the plays and films he wanted to write but could not.Apart from several State awards like Sarala Samman, Bisuva Samman and Governor's Plaque of Honour (1991), he received the Kendriya Sahitya Akademi Award in 1982 and Kendriya Sangeet Natak Academi Award in 1987.Gopal Chhotray spent his entire life in Cuttack.2016 would be the centenary year of his birth.A BIBLIOGRAPHY OF HIS PUBLICATIONS

[SEP] Knowledge 2: Place of birth
The place of birth( POB) or birthplace is the place where a person was born.This place is often used in legal documents, together with name and date of birth, to uniquely identify a person.As a general rule with respect to passports, the place of birth is determined to be the country that currently has" sovereignty" over the actual place of birth, regardless of when the birth actually occurred.The place of birth is not necessarily the place where the parents of the new baby live.If the baby is born in a hospital in another place, that place is the place of birth.In many countries, this also means that the government requires that the birth of the new baby is registered in the place of birth.Some countries place less or no importance on the place of birth, instead using alternative geographical characteristics for the purpose of identity documents.For example, Sweden has used the concept of" födelsehemortdomicile of birth") since 1947.This means that the domicile of the baby's mother is the registered place of birth.The location of the maternity ward or other physical birthplace is considered unimportant.Similarly, Switzerland uses the concept of" Heimatortlieu d'origineluogo d'origineplace of origin" in German, French and Italian respectively).A child born to Swiss parents is automatically assigned the place of origin of the parent with the same last name, so the child either gets their mother's or father's place of origin.A child born to one Swiss parent and one foreign parent acquires the place of origin of their Swiss parent.In a Swiss passport and identity card, the holder's place of origin is stated, not their place of birth.In some countries( primarily in the Americas), the place of birth automatically determines the nationality of the baby, a practice often referred to by the Latin phrase" jus soli".Almost all countries outside the Americas instead attribute nationality based on the nationality( ies) of the baby's parents( referred to as" jus sanguinis").There can be some confusion regarding the place of birth if the birth takes place in an unusual way: when babies are born on an airplane or at sea, difficulties can arise.The place of birth of such a person depends on the law of the countries involved, which include the nationality of the plane or ship, the nationality( ies) of the parents and/ or the location of the plane or ship( if the birth occurs in the territorial waters or airspace of a country).Some administrative forms may request the applicant's" country of birth".It is important to determine from the requester whether the information requested refers to the applicant's" place of birth" or" nationality at birth".For US citizens born abroad who under the US Constitution acquire US citizenship at the time of birth, the nationality at birth will be USA( American), while the place of birth would be the country in which the actual birth takes place.
