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.

Bengaluru, Jun 19: The Karnataka government has been advised by its Educational Advisor to cancel holidays observed in educational institutions on the occasion of various Jayantis (birth annivesaries).

Advisor to Karnataka government on Education, Professor MR Doreswamy, has recommended cancellation of holidays on Jayanti and celebrate the day with more meaningful programmes remembering the great personalities.

The state government has declared public holidays on Valmiki Jayanti, Basava Jayanti, Kanaka Jayanti, Mahavir Jayanti, Ambedkar Jayanti and Gandhi Jayanti.

On Thursday, Doreswamy submitted a report containing seven key suggestions including cancelling holidays, to Deputy Chief Minister CN Aswath Narayan, who holds higher education portfolio.

Doreswamy in his report suggested to hold thematic workshops, lectures, conferences and other such activities to celebrate the life and works of the great personalities, instead of declaring holidays.

"It would not only educate our youth about the significance of the great personalities to our culture and society and also reinvents the tradition of paying tributes to their contributions to our civil society,'' he said.

Dr Narayan said that the decision on cancelling holidays on Jayanti's has to be taken by Chief Minister BS Yediyurappa.

Moreover, to bring education back on track during the present COVID-19 pandemic situation, Doreswamy made a few suggestions to complete exams of final semester engineering and graduate students. He also said that it was a challenge for the education sector to overcome the pandemic crisis and structure the next academic year 2021-22.

He also advised implementation of a mentoring system in all higher education institutions in Karnataka and empowering specially-abled students.
