You do not have permission to edit this page, for the following reasons:

This IP address has been blocked from editing Wikipedia.
This does not affect your ability to read Wikipedia pages.
Most people who see this message have done nothing wrong. Some kinds of blocks restrict editing from specific service providers or telecom companies in response to recent abuse or vandalism, and can sometimes affect other users who are unrelated to that abuse. Review the information below for assistance if you do not believe that you have done anything wrong.

The IP address or range 54.163.0.0/16 has been blocked (disabled) by ‪Blablubbs‬ for the following reason(s):

The IP address that you are currently using has been blocked because it is believed to be a web host provider or colocation provider. To prevent abuse, web hosts and colocation providers may be blocked from editing Wikipedia.
You will not be able to edit Wikipedia using a web host or colocation provider because it hides your IP address, much like a proxy or VPN.
We recommend that you attempt to use another connection to edit. For example, if you use a proxy or VPN to connect to the internet, turn it off when editing Wikipedia. If you edit using a mobile connection, try using a Wi-Fi connection, and vice versa. If you are using a corporate internet connection, switch to a different Wi-Fi network. If you have a Wikipedia account, please log in.
If you do not have any other way to edit Wikipedia, you will need to request an IP block exemption.

How to appeal if you are confident that your connection does not use a colocation provider's IP address:
If you are confident that you are not using a web host, you may appeal this block by adding the following text on your talk page: ((unblock|reason=Caught by a colocation web host block but this host or IP is not a web host. My IP address is _______. Place any further information here. ~~~~)). You must fill in the blank with your IP address for this block to be investigated. Your IP address can be determined here. Alternatively, if you wish to keep your IP address private you can use the unblock ticket request system. There are several reasons you might be editing using the IP address of a web host or colocation provider (such as if you are using VPN software or a business network); please use this method of appeal only if you think your IP address is in fact not a web host or colocation provider.

Administrators: The IP block exemption user right should only be applied to allow users to edit using web host in exceptional circumstances, and requests should usually be directed to the functionaries team via email. If you intend to give the IPBE user right, a CheckUser needs to take a look at the account. This can be requested most easily at SPI Quick Checkuser Requests. Unblocking an IP or IP range with this template is highly discouraged without at least contacting the blocking administrator.

This block will expire on 17:28, 10 March 2024.

Even when blocked, you will usually still be able to edit your user talk page, as well as email administrators and other editors.

For information on how to proceed, please read the FAQ for blocked users and the guideline on block appeals. The guide to appealing blocks may also be helpful.

'''Prayag Dutta Joshi''' was an Indian writer and [[Sambalpuri language]] (allegedly also known as ''Kosli'') activist. He was born on 25 February 1913 to Shri Chandrasekhar Patjoshi and Smt. Brundabati Devi in [[Khariar]], [[Nuapada]]. He spent his time in Kosal bharti kuria of Khariar.<ref>((cite news|url=http://odishawatch.in/rethinking-kosli-identity-language-literature-and-culture-of-western-odisha/|title=rethinking kosli identity language literature and culture of western odisha|publisher=Odishawatch))</ref>

==Education==

He studied up to class 8th at Raj Khariar and then went to Raipur for higher studies and completed his matriculation in 1932. He privately studied Ayurveda from 1934 to 1938 in Kashi at Kabiraj Dharamdas Chaukacharya. He was awarded with gold medal for securing the first position in All India level Ayurveda examination held in 1938. During his Kashi days he had authored four volumes of books on Ayurveda in Sanskrit.

==Contribution to Kosli language==

Prayag Dutta Joshi was the first person to declare the language of western Orissa as an independent language and named it as  "Kosli", and declared that:

((blockquote|
"ପୁନଃ ପୁନଃ ଘୋସୟାମୀ  ପ୍ରସୃନ୍ବନ୍ତୁ ମନିସିଣଃ <br />
ସ୍ଵତନ୍ତ୍ର| କୋସଲୀ ଭାସା   ନୋପ ଭାସା କଦାଚନ"
))

(Punah punar ghosayami Prasrunwantu manishina, Swatantraa Kosli bhasa, Nopa bhasa kadachana). 
"Kutek lokar gutek Bhasa
Kosli amar Matru Bhasa"was his words that impress the mass to run the Kosli Bhasa Andolan.
He is popularly known as 'Kosli bhashar Janak' (Father of Kosli Language) and also as 'Kosal Gaurav'and "KOSAL RATNA".

He also spearheaded the Kosli language movement. Some of his books and articles are:

* Kosli Bhasa ra Ghara Samparkiya Sabdabali - Girijhar Bhawanipatna, November 1984.
* Paschim Odisha ra Bhasa Kosli - Hirakhand Basant Milan Souvenir, January 1985.
* Aaji O Kali ra Oriya Bhasa -Dainik Hirakhand, 1 February 1985.
* Kosli Lok Sahitya Re Rititatwa - Presented at Purbanchaliya Ritisahitya held at Panchayat College Bargarh and published in the souvenir, 25, 26, 27 November 1985.
* Kosal Pradesh ra Maitri Nibandhan - Odisha Sanskrutik Samaj Jayanti Samaroh Souvenir, 1986.
* Swatantra Kosli Bhasa - Dhuan Aru Dhuka - Saptarshi, July 1986.
* Swatantra Kosli Bhasa - Bidwatbimoha - Saptarshi July 1987.
* Swatantra Kosli Bhasa ra Parichay - Saptarshi, March 1988.

A well-known name in Kosli language, literature and movement, he was the first serious scholar who attempted a linguistic study of Kosli language. In fact, it was Joshi, who so emphatically announced that the language of the region was not Odia, but Kosli. Till his death he was not only producing seminal essays on uniqueness of Kosli Bhasa and literature but also promoted many amateur Kosli writers and poets. He was also among those who for the first time in 1986, submitted a memorandum to the President of India to include Kosli under Eighth Schedule. His small booklet Koshali Bhasar Samkhipta Parichay is considered as a sacred text by Kosli writers as well as leaders of the Kosal movement.

1979 - Khadial Sahitya Samiti
1980 - Panchapakhuda, Bhawanipatna
