The term "5T" in Odisha refers to a set of initiatives aimed at improving governance and public service delivery in the state. The 5T stands for "Teamwork, Technology, Transparency, Time and Transformation". The 5T action plan was approved by the Chief Minister of Odisha, Naveen Patnaik, for the Higher Education Department to ensure better service delivery to the public in the higher education sector. The 5T initiative is not related to any kind of tea, as suggested by a Congress member in a news clip.
