Udupi, Sep 25: Karnataka Komu Sauharda Vedike's state unit secretary K L Ashok has urged the writers and the litterateurs to boycott the 74th All India Kannada Sahitya Sammelan, which will be held in the city on October 25 to 28.

Addressing the mediapersons, he said that communalists had created controversies during the 73rd All India Kannada Sahitya Sammelan which was held in Shimoga. In this Sammelana, L S Seshagiri Rao president of the 74th Sammelan was associated with one of Sangh Parivar groups, he alleged.

Ashok condemned the decision of minister for higher education D H Shankaramurthy against the In-charge principal of the University College in Mangalore. He said the reason behind punishing the principal was that he did not allow the Akhil Bharatiya Vidyarthi Parishat to hold a function in the University College unit.

On this occasion members of the Komu Sauharda Vedike Sriram, Vivana, Rasool Katpady and others were present.

    Please do one more favour. Take those activist to task who are forcibly imposing Kannada language compulsory in all new schools. It is parents to decide what medium of language their children need to study. Not those few activists who are making career out of force and protest in the name of language. Spare one or two English medium schools in each area. If there are no takers they will perish naturally. Nobody should force language on parents or children.
