Kannada Sahitya Sammelana dates revised; to be held from January 6 to 8

The 86th Akhila Bharatiya Kannada Sahitya Sammelana will be held from January 6 to 8 as the State government on Wednesday decided on the schedule, revising the tentative dates that had been indicated by the Kannada Sahitya Parishat earlier as November 11 to 13.

The sammelana will be held in Haveri, the home district of Chief Minister Basavaraj Bommai.

The decision on the schedule of the sammelana was taken at a preparatory meeting attended by Kannada and Culture Minister V. Sunil Kumar, Haveri district incharge Minister Shivaram Hebbar, and Kannada Sahitya Parishat president Mahesh Joshi. Later, the schedule was discussed with the Chief Minister. Mr. Joshi had earlier expressed concern over lack of adequate preparations for the event and hinted that it may be put off.
