It’s a matter of great pride to be posted as the first Registrar of Odia University which is planned to be the leading institution for the study and promotion of Odia language, linguistics, literature, heritage and culture. Hopefully here we will strive to create an environment that fosters the growth and enrichment of this vibrant language, enabling individuals to connect with their roots and heritage. At Odia University, we believe that language acts as a bridge between cultures, histories, and people and it is the medium through which ideas are expressed, stories are shared, and traditions are preserved. With that in mind, we will definitely undertake several initiatives to protect and promote the Odia language, ensuring its relevance and vitality in the contemporary world.
Furthermore, it has been decided that, Odia University will act as a research center which will serve as a hub for scholars, linguists, researchers and students who wish to contribute to the development and preservation of Odia Language. We encourage all language enthusiasts to engage in research, contribute to our growing body of knowledge, and help establish Odia as a recognized and respected global language. In addition to our academic endeavors, Odia University is going to act as a cultural hub, organizing events, workshops, and festivals that celebrate the rich heritage and traditions of Odisha. These events will aim to foster a sense of belonging, encourage artistic exploration, and promote intercultural dialogue.
As the Registrar of Odia University, it gives me immense pleasure to witness the growth and progress of our institution. I extend my heartfelt gratitude to our dedicated faculty, passionate students, Govt of Odisha and the wider community for their unwavering support and commitment. Together, we can ensure that the Odia language and culture continue to flourish, inspiring future generations and leaving a lasting legacy. Together, let us celebrate the power of language and appreciate the richness of our heritage.
With warm regards….
