Sahitya Parishad office bearers call on Sanu Lama, apologise in person


GANGTOK, 26 May: The working committee of Nepali Sahitya Bhawan led by their president, BK Roka, called on senior litterateur and former NSP president, Sanu Lama, at his home yesterday and apologized to him in person for having issued a press release to explain the financial status of the Parishad and for having included some disparaging remarks on him in the press release.
The office bearers at Nepali Sahitya Parishad had already issued a public apology to the Padmashree some time back, it may be recalled. The matter had remained sore specially after Mr. Lama’s letter to the NSP demanding that a public apology be issued or he would be forced to return the Bhanu Puraskar conferred on him by the NSP was leaked to the press.
An NSP press release issued by Hemant Giri informs that Mr. Lama, while accepting the apology, also informed that his letter to the NSP was a communication between him and the organization and never intended to be leaked to the press.
