Kalinga Lit Fest To Recall Gandhi's 'Idea Of India' | Odisha News


Bhubaneswar: With "Gandhis Idea of India: Truth, Harmony, Non-Violence" as its central theme, the three-day Kalinga Literary Festival (KLF) here later this month will pay tribute to the Father of the Nation through contemporary reflections on his ideas and is set to trigger global and national discussions on his work and ideas through literature; lived experience, politics, art, film, business, media and sports.

Around 250 speakers, poets, musicians, artists and performers will feature in the fourth edition of the festival during innovative sessions on radio, poetry recitation, short story, lyrics and cinema. Concurrently, the Kalinga Art Festival will showcase works of 60 artists from Odisha and India. Four prestigious awards will be conferred and more than 30 national and international books/publications will be released during the July 19-21 event.

"KLF is well-known for its socially relevant themes and in a way compels all creative people to think and articulate 'the contemporary'. The festival will cover several dimensions of the interconnection between literature, Gandhian ideology, truth, harmony and non-violence," the organisers said in a statement.
