Mangalore, February 27: The post-graduate department of English literature in the St Aloysius College and Durga Pooja and Dussera Celebration Committee Mangalore recreated the golden age of Tagore, giving a slice of Bengali culture in Mangalore in Shantiniketan style on Saturday.

The day-long tribute was named as 'Tagore's Day' which had the theme for the annual cultural festival of the college entitled “Engquest Twenty11”.

The main objective of the event was to pay tribute to Tagore on the occasion of his 150th birth centenary.

The event was also aimed to forward thoughts of Rabindranath Tagore through a cross cultural programme.

The day-long tributes included a special discourse on Tagore's literature, recitation of his poems, a quiz on his works and ballet on his life enacted by the students in typical Shantiniketan style, with costumes brought from Shantiniketan.

Three ballets namely 'Balmiki Prativa,' 'Chandalika' and 'Chitrangada' were performed. All the three ballets were the works of Tagore, but only selected instances from the ballet were performed.

A dance drama, was enacted by the students of St Aloysius College and the local Bengali community in 'Shantiniketan style'. The language used in the ballet was Bengali to keep the essence and flavour of the Bengali culture but translations in English helped audience understand the meaning of the performance.

The members of the Bengali Association sung some of Rabindranath Tagore's songs and also staged dance performances.

Gadag, Aug 1: A woman in Gadag district of Karnataka mortgaged her 'mangalsutra' to buy a television set for her children following the Karnataka government's decision to continue the classes through TV amid the COVID-19 pandemic.

A resident of Radder Naganur village, Kasturi, who is also a mother of two, purchased a television set against her 'mangalsutra' for Rs 14,000. She bought the TV after her children's school teachers asked them to attend classes via the television set.

Kasturi said, "I can not send the children to the neighbours' house every day and it was necessary for them to study. We had no other option but to buy a TV set."

She said, "Both, my husband and I are daily wage workers and during coronavirus, we do not have work or money."

"I sold my 'mangalsutra' for Rs 20,000 and bought a TV for Rs 14,000," said Kasturi while happily adding, "Now, my kids can study at home itself."

Kasturi's daughter, Surekha said, "We did not have the TV for several months but now when we have it, we will study and get a bigger 'mangalsutra' for my mother."
