Alva’s Nudisiri to be Restricted to Around 2,000 Participants & Witness Quality Discussions on Kannada From This Year

Alva’s foundation chairman M. Mohan Alva informed that the annual Alva’s Nudisiri literary festival which is being organised by Alvas Education Foundation will no longer be a mass event and it will be restricted to around 2,000 serious participants.

Dr. Alva said it was difficult to continue organising “Nudisiri” as a mass literary festival. “Starting from this year, Nudisiri will be restricted to about 2,000 participants wherein there will be quality deliberations on issues related to Kannada and literature. The annual Alva’s Virasat however will continue to be the programme to showcase varied art forms of the State and the nation. “Unlike holding small concerts, the programmes will be largely for masses.

Free education is being offered to those studying in Alva Kannada medium school. As many as 600 students are studying in the Kannada medium school. Nearly 19,000 applications were received for admission in the school for the ensuing academic year. Process of selecting the students was on. A total of 27,000 students are studying in Alva’s institutions of which 20,000 were in hostels, he said.
