Outdated Django and Python Versions Make Local Setup Nearly Impossible

[utsav-pal]

The project relies on an unsupported version of Django and Python 3.5 (EOL September 2020). This makes setting up a local development environment nearly impossible because:

Modern operating systems and tools no longer support Python 3.5.

Current package versions are incompatible, causing dependency resolution to fail.

The stack contains unpatched security vulnerabilities.

Suggested Fix:

Upgrade to a supported Python version (3.8+) and a supported Django LTS release. This is essential for the project's security and maintainability.
