[ad_1]
The sixth version of the Kerala Literature Festival (KLF), scheduled to be held round this time on the Kozhikode beach, has been dropped in view of the pandemic state of affairs.
Announcing this by a dwell Facebook interplay on Tuesday night, KLF director and poet K. Satchidanandan mentioned, “… We felt that holding the event in line with social distancing norms will not be effective. Because this is a festival that joins people physically and socially. That’s why we decided to drop the event this year. We are planning to hold the sixth edition in January 2022.”
Mr. Satchidanandan identified that the Kozhikode beach had an essential position to play within the conduct of the competition. “Its openness, beauty and the feeling of togetherness there, all of it makes the event fruitful. We are planning to hold the sixth edition on the beach itself,” he mentioned.
Mr. Satchidanandan mentioned that writers from throughout the nation and overseas could be a part of the competition subsequent time and a overseas nation and an Indian language could be the visitors of honour. A lecture sequence too could be organised forward of it. Lectures or debates involving writers and philosophers could be held each month until subsequent January. The actual dates could be introduced later, Mr. Satchidanandan added.
