Mumbai, 27 May 2018: The rural folks and Kannadigas settled in cities and towns across country are indeed doing their mite in sustaining mother tongue Kannada, while it’s unfortunate in motherland that is not the case. Kannadigas settled in Mumbai are striving to promote Kannada and its distinct culture. I have been writing for living, while I grew because of friends who are interested in my literature. I grew faster as a result of me selling my books overnight and earned income. All that has gone into bagging the award, said Subraya Chokkady, litterateur, well known poet, critic and teacher.

 

Subraya was speaking after receiving Narayana Guru Literary Award-2018 that was sponsored by  M B Kukyan, former honorary editor-in-chief of Akshaya bulletin of Billawar Association Mumbai® during the function held at Narayana Guru auditorium, Santacruz (East), here, on Saturday, May 26 evening.

 

 

Billawar Association Mumbai® president Nityanand D Kotian and Billawar Mahamandala president Jaya C Suvarna presented Subraya Chokkady Narayana Guru Literary Award-2018, comprised Rs 25,000 cash, citation letter and public honor.

 

The veteran litterateur Dr Sunita M Shetty, Akshaya bulletin editor Dr Eshwar Alevoor released the book, Progressive Litterateur M B Kukyan on the same occasion.
