Summary:

Nashik, Dec 3 (PTI) Litterateurs need to come forward, raise their voice against injustice and express their opinion without fear, said renowned film scriptwriter and lyricist Javed Akhtar on Friday.

He was speaking as the chief guest at the inauguration of the 94th Akhil Bharatiya Marathi Sahitya Sammelan (All India Marathi Literary Meet) here.

“Language becomes a barrier in our country.

We are slowly becoming narrow minded.

Language is a vehicle which runs culture.

Kings and politicians love art till it portrays beauty, but when it portrays the reality about the light of the day, the pain, tears of people, they get hurt.
