Utkal Gaurav Madhusudan Das was not only the father of the state of Odisha, he was also the mantra of the Oriya people. In many respects, he was the first Oriya to be recognized and respected. As the first Oriya lawyer, Madhubabu’s legal career was as interesting as ever.
Madhusudan started practicing law in Kolkata on the 16th after passing the legal examination. In Odisha, Bengali lawyers were very influential. Jagmohan Vidyadhar Bhuiyan Mohapatra, the dean of the king of Narsinghpur, who was associated with Madhubabu, persuaded Madhubabu to come to Odisha to practice law.
In 181, Madhubabu severed his long-standing relationship with Calcutta and came to Cuttack to start his own practice. The case of Puri Raja, Mansinghpatna robbery case, Khandapada Raja case, Kendujhar Raja case is important in Madhubabu’s advocacy life.
