Renowned Marathi writer Balachandra Namade cautioned that any award or success of a writer should not make him isolated from the common man.
Speaking after presenting the annual Karnataka Sahitya Academy Honorary Award-2009 to five Kannada writers for their outstanding contribution to Kannada literature and annual book awards- 2008 for 17 writers in Udupi on July 2, Namade said even after his success, the writer should be able to share the sufferings of the common man which make him still greater.
He said the height of glory in all fields of Kannada literature such as dance, drama, Yakshagana and folklore took place in the 60s. Several great writers and poets and patriots of Marathi were originated from Karnataka.
Commending the efforts taken by the Karnataka government by honouring the Kannada writers for their achievements through the academy, he said it was a sincere attempt of recognition to adore the writers who were part of the community.

‘Politics Divides Hearts, Literature Bonds Them’
“While politics tends to divide people, literature bonds them together,” opined well known Kannada poet, ‘Nadoja’ awardee, Dr Chennaveera Kanavi. He was speaking at a function organized for handing over honorary awards for the year 2009 and Book Awards for 2008, at M G M College in Udupi on Thursday July 1.

Kannada linguistic revolutions like Navodaya, Navya, progressive, dalit, Bandaya etc., are not opposed to each other. They complement each other for the growth of the language and a literature that grows beyond the limits of revolutions, is sublime,” he said.
