May 22, 2026

A delegation from the Santali monthly news magazine 'Fagun', representing Odisha, Jharkhand, and New Delhi, met President Droupadi Murmu Thursday urging to implement the 'Ol Chiki' script in Santali textbooks published by NCERT and other educational institutions.

During the meeting, the delegates expressed concern over the continued use of Devanagari script in Santali educational materials. They stated that 'Ol Chiki', invented by Pandit Raghunath Murmu, is the original and scientifically designed script of the Santali language and has been widely used across Odisha, Jharkhand, West Bengal, and Assam in schools, colleges, universities, and literary publications.
