Dear Geetha Since your mail was copied to a number of gender groups, I thought of mentioning to you that the signature tune of the Sangham Radio goes like this:
Akka chellenlu koodi podamay Mana Sanghamla maatalada podamay which roughly translates into "Let us together go sisters, to our sangham so that we can talk". This is so powerful a message by them that they are going to use their radio to talk among themselves. Last night sitting in front of their station they composed a song which translates roughly as follows: Sisters, let us go together to our sangham, so that we can talk. We have retrieved forgotten conversations and brought them alive in our radio We have recovered lost festivals and described it in our radio We have planted diverse crops And sung about it in our radio We have saved traditional seeds And brought their methods to our radio. Thus their radio has symbolised for them the deep pride in what they have done as a community of women. And it is this that they would like to talk about in their radio. with warm regards satheesh --- On Wed, 15/10/08, Geeta Malhotra <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: From: Geeta Malhotra <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Re: [cr-india] Sangham Radio goes on air To: "sajan venniyoor" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Cc: [email protected] Date: Wednesday, 15 October, 2008, 8:29 AM CONGRATS TO THE PASTAPUR TEAM AND ALL BEHIND THIS EFFORT.
