Odisha's Annual Lit Fest

Kalinga Literary Festival will be held between July 31 and August 1.

Keeping in mind the pandemic situation, the Kalinga Literary Festival this year will introduce  ‘KLF Bhava Samvad’ which will be held virtually. The event aims to bring together luminaries from different areas of culture, literature, business, spirituality and law.  Some of this year's names include Amitav Ghosh, Bibek Debroy, Amish Tripathi, Arundhati Subramanian, Devdutt Pattanaik, Sandeep Agarwal and Meghnad Desai.

The event is held every year by Odisha Diary Foundation (ODF) & Rythm Fesival Pvt Ltd. It offers a national platform with a global appeal and bridges the gap between literature in English and other Indian regional languages.
