Mangalore, September 19: Alva's Education Foundation will organise this year's 'Alva's Nudisiri', a Kannada literary and cultural convention at Moodbidri for three days from November 11, chairman of the foundation M. Mohan Alva said in a release.

This will be the eighth annual convention which will be held at Vidyagiri.

The foundation had been organising the convention for the past seven years without accepting any grant from the government, he said.

Mr. Alva said that the foundation planned on organising pre-convention consultation meetings at select places in the State this year.

Those who wanted to take lead in organising such meetings could contact the foundation office.

He said the intention was to ensure that people from all districts in the State participated in the convention from this year. Mr. Alva said more youth should come forward to promote Kannada in the State by participating in such conventions.

Kannada could be promoted only if younger generation took interest in literary and cultural activities.

He said that the foundation would announce this year's theme of convention, details about literary sessions, guests who will attend, and cultural programmes in a few more days.

As covid-19 cases began to increase in Dakshina Kannada, the Kasargod district administration had unilaterally newly introduced of daily pass system on July 6 for entry and exit from Talapady border. This had inconvenienced hundreds of employees, who visited Mangaluru daily to eke a living. 

The decision to resume the pass system was taken in a video conference of Kerala Revenue Minister Chandrasekharan with officials and elected representatives on August 3.

The minister said the Kasaragod district administration will resume issuing of passes for daily commuters between Kasaragod and Mangaluru. But they should undergo rapid antigen test for every week to renew their passes.

"Similarly, one-time interstate passes will be issued for those who want to take part in marriages, funeral and other functions in both states. Even they should undergo antigen test after returning from the functions,” the minister added.

As per the previous order, daily commuters, especially employees, had to stay in Mangaluru for 28 days before returning to Kasargod. Later, Kerala government relaxed rules on July 23 allowing only bank employees from Kasaragod to travel daily in their private vehicles to their workplace in Dakshina Kannada.
