OBJECTION TO JAVED AKHTAR INAUGURATING LITERARY MEET | 23 November, 2021

The Nasik-based Brahman Mahasangh has said that it would not tolerate Javed Akhtar being invited to inaugurate the three-day Bharatiya Marathi Sahitya Sammelan as he is not a Marathi litterateur. The organisers said, the decision to invite people was the prerogative of the organising committee. Javed Akhtar is the chief guest at the inauguration, and the Mahasangh said, it had no objection to the choice of the chief guest.
