Governor flays critics of conflict
Kerala Governor Rajendra Vishwanath Arlekar on Saturday (May 10) came down on those who spoke against the Indo-Pak conflict claiming that it would affect innocent civilians.
'These are the same people who kept silent when 26 people were killed, leaving several of our sisters widowed,' he said, urging a change in attitude in such situations. The Governor was in Kozhikode on Saturday to inaugurate the 45th State convention of Vishwa Sanskrit Pratishthanam (Sanskritbharathi), the Kerala unit of Sanskrit Bharati.
He said Sanskrit was the language of this land, and through the propagation of the language, Sanskritbharathi was engaged in invoking one's sense of identity. 'Language, culture, and mythology are all part of one's identity. One should not forget that,' he added.
Sanskritbharati national general secretary Sathyananda Bharathi delivered the keynote address. State president P.K. Sankaranarayanan presided over the event.
