वन्दे उत्कल जननी

वन्दे उत्कळ जननी (ओड़िआ: ବନ୍ଦେ ଉତ୍କଳ ଜନନୀ) कांतकबि लक्ष्मीकान्त महापात्र द्वारा लिखित एक ओड़िआ देशभक्ति कविता है। ओड़िशा १ अप्रैल १९३६ में स्वतंत्र होने के बाद, इस कविता को ओड़िशा का राज्य गान बनाया गया था।^[1]

कविता मे उत्कल को आत्मविश्वास और शक्ति को बजाय रखने और असुरक्षा और भय की स्थिति से अपने आत्म-सम्मान और गरिमा को बनाए रखने कि एक परिकल्पना की गई है। इस कविता से ओड़िशा में अलग प्रांत के लिए आंदोलन में तेजी आई है। उत्कल सम्मिलनी इस आंदोलन का नेतृत्व कर रहा था।उत्कल जननी (माँ उत्कल की जय) एक देशभक्ति मकसद के कारण लिखा गया था।
