Nalanda has always upheld the pricelessness of all that is India and her great ancient culture which consists of the various performing arts, visual arts, the mother of all languages Sanskrit and Sanskritic studies , the religio- philosophical thought and other co-related facets. Being a highly recognized research centre, Nalanda recognizes and appreciates all those endeavours that probe deep into the all encompassing cultural phenomena of this great country. Very naturally these endeavours come from most dedicated individuals who not only delve into this vast ocean that is Indian culture but also have the intellectual calibre to unravel, re-interpret and re-invent this knowledge and wisdom to conform with their own times. From 2011 Nalanda has initiated a process of honouring such individuals who have acquired iconic status. By honouring them Nalanda is honouring India on behalf of all Indians.

Mahesh Elkuchwar (Theatre) Rajkumar Singhajit Singh (Dance) Sangeet Martand Pandit Jasraj San g eet M ar t an d Pan d it Jas raj 's achievements are beyond compare more so because vocal music is the most intimate and direct medium according to India's musical treatise and tradition.

He has been passionately loyal to his soil, while his music has scaled ethereal heights all over the planet.

Perfect diction, clarity in sur (musical notes), and gayaki (creative musical progression), command in all aspects of laya and rhythm, depth of composition and an unmistakable interplay between notes and words to evoke the desired mood and emotion, are the hallmark of Panditji's music. This sensitivity, added to the pure classical approach, has given his singing a lyrical quality, the quintessential of the Mewati tradition of singing.

Rejuvenation of Mohini Attam at Nalanda: This is a unique and very important Department of Nalanda. The dance style was almost forgotten at the turn of the present century. Dr. Kanak Rele and Nalanda have played a very significant role in not only rehabilitating this dance style but, more importantly, in creating technically sound courses of study for beginners as well at the University level. .

July, 1982 NatyaBhavan EE 8, Sector 2, Salt Lake, Kolkata 700091/ Call 033 23217667 visit us at http://www.natyashodh.org https://sites.google.com/view/nssheritagelibrary/home (Amol Palekar&ChitraPalekar came a little late and joined the discussionregarding the scope of theatre and the different forms a playwright tries to explore.) ChitraPalekar It is not that you cannot do a thing. You can do anything, you can do anything. It is not the point. The point is that the basic advantage that cinema has over theatre, the whole mass of audience, you know, all those eight hundred or nine hundred people he can put them to a close-up. This tableau we still see in theatre sitting as a design in a particular frame but here you can break that frame, you can go closer and he can focus your attention on just a little point here and a gesture here, and a gesture there and you know, on stage you will have to show with a torch yet it won’t be visible. Amol Palekar The point is …..Obviously two points come to my mind. First and foremost, suppose you are able to do it, and you are able to hold the audience then why not. The question is – yes, you do it for two hours, just keep one tableau and somebody the off sound is there. If that can hold then I think it will be a perfect valid theatre, why not? Bimal Lath Could it be that we can make 10 plays the same way? Amol Palekar Yes, why not? In fact I think on this issue I will say something which will immediately start a big fight so I will purposely started not for the sake of fight but because I believe in it also.

    A Salute to the Music Maestro Cherished are those whose creativity adds melody to the world It were madness to paint the lily, count the stars, sweeten honey or to fathom Balmurali’s colossal genius These words have been dedicated to the musical genius, Palghat Mani Iyer, but today they apprise the multifaceted Carnatic vocalist, composer, and music guru, Mangalampalli Balamurali Krishna who passed away in Chennai at the age of 86, leaving an irreplaceable void in the realm of Indian Classical Music. The rich imprint of his magnificently rich voice, verses and innovated ragas & taalas live on. M Balamurali Krishna An insignia of illimitable creativity, Balamurali (6 July 1930 – 22 November 2016) Krishna kept the Indian classical tradition alive while modernizing the whole Carnatic music system to make it relatable to the common man. He was a disciple of Parupalli Ramakrishnayya Pantulu, a “I breathe music, think music, talk direct inheritor of the shishya parampara of Tyagaraja, music and music is my energy and I and performed the first full-fledged concert at a am an instrument of music” Thyagaraja Aradhana in Vijayawada at the age of eight.

  • Political News Election
    HTTP://WWW.UPSCPORTAL.COM POLITICAL NEWS ELECTION COMMISSION AT 60 After overseeing 15 general elections to the Lok Sabha, the Election Commission of India, in its diamond jubilee year, can with justifiable pride claim to have nursed and st rengthened the electoral processes of a nascent democracy. The successes have not been consiste nt or uniform, but over the last six decades the ECI managed to make the worlds largest democratic p rocess freer and fairer. One of the instruments of this success is surely the Model Code of C onduct. D esigned to offer a level playing field to all political parties, it has been used to neu tralise many of the inherent advantages of a ruling party in an election. Although the model code wa s originally based on political consensus and does not still enjoy statutory sanction, it served as a handy tool for placing curbs on the abuse of the official machinery for campaigning. While ther e have been complaints of excess in the sometimes mindless application of the model code, th e benefits have generally outweighed the costs. After the Election Commission was made a three-member body, its functioning beca me more institutionalised and more transparent with little room for the caprices of an o verbearing personality. The diamond jubilee is also an occasion for the ECI to look at the challenges ah ead, especially those relating to criminalisation of politics and use of money power in elections. Neither of these issues is new. What is clear is that the efforts of the Commission to t ackle them have generally lacked conviction and have not yielded any significant results.
