Daaiz to celebrate Daaiz Day on 11th Nov
----------------------------------------
Kuwait, 24 October 2005: Daaiz will celebrate Daaiz
Day on the 11th of November 2005 at Carmel School
Auditorium in Kuwait at 6:00pm, on which the releasing
of the first Divo Daaiz Special Issue 2005 and the
first konkani book on poetry articles - Kavithapaatt

Daaiz is a group of Konkani's progressive writers,
poets and critiques working voluntarily for the
betterment of Konkani literature in particular.
Literature has no boundary, limits, and languages when
it comes to reaching the reader. Language is just a
media of communicating it to the readers. Daaiz has
been conducting various activities in Kuwait that
supports Konkani language, literature and journalism.
Kavithapaatt is one of the concepts in which various
Konkani poems are being studied and articles by
various poets are being presented. If we really care
for good literature, then we have to be ready for any
criticism. Learning should be the must for every
writer/poet. Only a review on the writing of every
poet/writer will make him a matured poet/writer. The
first monthly literary workshop in the Gulf was
conducted on the 15th November 2002 by Valley Quadras
at his residence, Late Cha.Fra.D'Costa's poetry was
chosen for the debate. After this session the
literature of various other writers/poets such as Late
Luis Mascarenhas, Sijyes Taccode, Melvyn Rodrigues,
Late. George Pinto, J.B.Moraes and others have been
conducted.
Kavithapaatt is mainly focusing on Konkani poetry of
various poets, and various forms of poetry. For every
month, poetry will be chosen for the study and a
complete study will be done on the chosen poem and
will be presented during the Kavithapaatt. Daaiz.com
has published these articles in Kavithapaatt Vol-1
edited by Valley Quadras and published by Ashawadi
Publications. Well-known poets/writers Melvyn
Rodrigues, Henry M Pernal, Hemacharya have written the
forewords.
Daaiz Divo Special Issue 2005 is focusing on special
cause - a charity. The objective of this special issue
is to support a human cause through literature. For
