Capitalist approach killing folk culture, says Sahitya Akademi President

Handoo in his keynote speech highlighted the need to “revive and rewrite” history because most of it has been written without the “participation of people”.

“One wonders how we can write history without the participation of the people about whom the history is written.

Real history of India is still available in the form of folklore and requires our attention,” Handoo said.
