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