Event
Birth of Oriya Literature

Up until now, Sanskrit has been the only language of literature in Country, with the colloquial Oriya language being reserved for the Commoners and lower castes. Sarala Dasa, a retired soldier with little formal education has begun to change this, however, by translating the Mahābhārata into Oriya. Sarala Dasa's original work is also exclusively in Oriya and other poets have now begun to take up this practice.
