Writers should highlight issues of the downtrodden sections, says actor R. Narayana Murthy
Noted film producer and actor R. Narayana Murthy on Sunday said that justice would be done to the downtrodden sections of the society, especially the tribal people, when poets and writers would champion the cause with their writings. Releasing ‘Bahula’, a novel written by Attada Appala Naidu, at a function at Bapuji Kalamandir here, Mr. Narayana Murthy said the novel has vividly depicted about the 100 years of history of Kalingandhra region, highlighting the uprising of farmers and tribal people on various occasions over the injustice meted out to them by the erstwhile Jamindars. “The 470-page novel highlights the in-depth study of Srikakulam’s history by Mr. Appala Naidu. It is certainly help historians, researchers and the future generations analyse the protests during the British regime,” said Mr. Narayana Murthy.More Related News
