In a very appropriate decision the Government has rightly appointed noted Goan educationist and Padma Shri Dr. Suresh Gundu Amonkar as the President of the Goa Konkani Akademi.
Today despite being 80+ our Dr. Suresh Amonkar stands tall as ever, as always extremely gregarious and showing no signs of slowing down. All this after he having battled cancer for over a decade with so many sessions of chemotherapy. The very affable Dr. Suresh Amonkar insists that it’s only very strong will power and courage that can go a long way in battling cancer and that no one should maintain a veil of secrecy or shy away over any ailment being suffered including Cancer. The very outspoken prolific writer and extremely knowledgeable Dr Suresh Amonkar has always been a True Goenkar with a very broad outlook. He will undoubtedly do justice to this new position entrusted to him to accelerate the promotion and development of Konkani in the State.
