It is working for the establishment of a Central Institute Of Classical Odia[1] as well as an Odia Biswabidyalaya.[2][3][4][5][6] During the past ten years the institute has organised discussion groups, state and National level seminars[7][8][9] and Conference.

Research work

IOSR has always been a priority to Research for human development. In this Regards, IOSR organising National level seminars[10] and conferences before deciding on which research to be done, and seek the advice of experts. For the past 15 years, the institute has been conducting about 15 national level seminars and 7 national language conferences for this purpose.

Odia as a classical language

The first research project of the organization was based on the Odia language. In order to explore the ancient history and glory of the Odia language, IOSR developed a research paper for the classical recognition of the Odia language. The study breaks down the pre-existing idea that Odia is a 500-year-old language, with a 2,500-year history of the language, a 2,000-year-old literature, and a script that was created from primitive caves below 20,000 years old. The research paper proves that the origin of the script, especially in all the scripts of India, is derived from Odisha. According to the Central Government's Home Department, the Odia language has been given classical status, but after two years of research, it has given glory to the Odia language and the importance of the Odia language as an ancient and prosperous language in the world.[11]
