Bhubaneswar, 4\/2\/2024 ( Odisha Samachar \/ Rajat Mohapatra )-\u00a0\u00a0 A beautiful play \u201cDekh Meta Tor Tokir Kata\u201d in Koraput district\u2019s Desia language, staged at three-day-long multilingual tribal drama festival of Annual Adivasi Mela 2024 today, was trying to create awareness on child marriage. The play depicted how with the interference of the educated mass of the village, a child marriage was called off in the nick of time, and both the minors later became highly educated and led a better life.\"\"<\/p>\n

Director Sundarmal Barik of \u201cMaa Mauli Kala Parishad\u201d from Gundal Kundra in Koraput district said \u201cthe strong message through this tribal multilingual drama festival has really attracted thousands of viewers and given a wonderful experience to the troupes.\u201d<\/p>\n

The second play tonight in Mundari language \u201cHemal Umbul\u201d by \u201cMaa Chintamani Mundari Opera\u201d from Astajharan, Badasahi in Mayurbhanj district has sent a strong message against the ill-effects of unscientific, superstitious and blind belief on witches as a family displaces its own mother.<\/p>\n

Writer-Director-Actor Dasrath Singh felt that the first multilingual drama festival at Adivasi Mela would certainly inspire others in the tribal communities to adopt creative thinking and try to bring in social changes through them.\"\"<\/p>\n

Mobile menace has become a burden in our society. A tribal youth has become a victim and how his life is affected and how due to the addiction he loses his love, family and old parents, was vividly narrated through the powerful play in Mundari language by the members of \u201cMan BiratpatTayanbur Banga Madil Dramatic Club\u201d from Khadiabasa, Udala in Mayurbhanj district, last evening.<\/p>\n

The play \u201cRiling Kedamanmee Jiban Reya Senhora\u201d directed by Satrughan Singh, aptly narrated the plight of millions of parents and their wards, and how the young mass is getting distracted due to the mysterious attraction to the gadget.<\/p>\n

\"\"This drama in Mundari language yesterday was followed by Santali play \u201cDin Ge DubungDubung\u201d which was an awareness drama as in many tribal communities due to over use of entertainments like dance and music, their mainstream activities are getting affected and they are leading with an abysmally low income and \u201cunbalanced\u201d lifestyle.<\/p>\n

Director of the Santali play Gangadhar Hembram said \u201cthe protagonist from a general community tries to make the tribal people understand that he, with a proper planning and balance, is leading a comfortable life, but his tribal friends are still suffering as their approach to life, in a way, is getting distracted.\u201d<\/p>\n

Hembram thanked the ST, SC Development Minorities & Backward Classes Welfare Department in providing such a wonderful platform to stage the drama in their own Santali language. \u201cI hope as a sideline event of the World Odia Language Conference at Janata Maidan, this event will be sending a beautiful message on the multilingual approach in education and other socio-cultural spheres of the Odisha Government,\u201d he added.\"\"<\/p>\n

\u201cThe diversity of tribal languages is a great asset for our State. The multilingual drama festival at Adivasi Mela Ground has also become a big creative platform for our gifted artists,\u201d said Commissioner-cum-Secretary ST, SC Development Minorities and Backward Classes Welfare Department, Roopa Roshan Sahoo.<\/p>\n

\u201cRaj Gaipai the writer-director will stage a drama \u201cAdivasi\u201d tomorrow in Ho language from Pandit Lakobodra Dramatic Club from Karanjia in Mayurbhanj district. In this beautiful play the troupe will showcase the plight of the displaced indigenous communities as despite the false promises they lose their land, forests and all belongings and suffer,\u201d said Samay Purty, a manager of the group.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
