My Bio

A lifelong lover of literature, I find joy in the written word—whether tucked between the pages of a favorite story or flowing from my own pen. I write sometimes, when inspiration strikes, exploring thoughts, stories, and language at my own pace. This space is a quiet corner for that passion—a collection of what moves me, and sometimes, what I write.

I am not a writer, just a penner, web developer, and literary enthusiast dedicated to promoting Odia literature and culture through creative and digital expression.

I hold a Bachelor’s Degree along with Post Graduate in Computer Application, Web Design & Development, and Journalism—a combination that bridges technology, communication, and creativity.

Professionally, I serve in the Water Resources Department, Government of Odisha, where I contribute through official support services. Beyond my professional commitments, my passion for literature and cultural preservation into meaningful projects that celebrate the richness of the Odia language.

I am the Founder and Editor of Banamallira Mahak—a literary journal dedicated to Odia language, literature, folklore, and cultural studies. Under my editorial leadership, Banamallira Mahak has become a creative space for writers and readers, offering free access to Odia literary works and promoting open publishing through ISBN-supported publications.

Writing has always been at the heart of my life. My hobbies include writing stories, poetry, and articles in Odia, reflecting everyday life, emotions, and social themes with authenticity and depth. Through my writings, I aim to inspire, preserve, and enrich the Odia literary tradition in the digital age.
