This is in response to Jason K. Fernandes article which came out in the
Gomantak Times today and reproduced in the Goanet.
If one is organising a festival of this nature, one plans it months in
advance. One does not necessarily want to attend all the sessions. Besides
there are constraints on the part of the audience where transport is
concerned. I live in Betim. Have to cross the ferry. wait for a bus which
will take me to Dona Paula. It also clashed with the seminar at the Goa
University. I agree, some of the sessions were full of people, especially in
Mandovi and Zuari Hall. Arjun, who is the Programme Coordinator was very
sympathetic and so was Mr. Mirchandani. There are many events in Goa which
start on time, there are others which don't, but that doesn't give the right
of one of the organisers being rude.
