DKA also requests Konknni lovers to condemn, boycott, and openly show their protest to the Konknni conference organized from 10 to 12 February at Kala Akademi by All India Konknni Parishad which promotes division and communalism in Goa by promoting its demonic fascist principle "One script, one language, one literature and one community". Let us all join hand in hand to save Goa and its language Konknni and to defeat the communal forces of Devanagari script proponents. SAVE KONKNNI, SAVE GOA!
