AGARTALA (Nazrul Kalakshetra) Dec 29 (TIWN): Chief Minister Manik Sarkar on Friday evening while addressing at Team EGARO conducted Photo Festival in Nazrul Kalakshetra said that the 'Egaro' word itself has attracted him to join the exhibition, which reminds him about a legends and unending passions.
Chief Minister Manik Sarkar has inaugurated the Photo-Exhibition which has begun from today and to be continued till January 1st, 2018.
'Egaro' has taken this initiative of exhibiting the works of eleven talented photographers from different parts of India accompanied by other events like artists like artists like talks, photo projection and photobbok library.
However, this is the 2nd year that Egaro is observing this ceremony at here.
(Noteworthy : Egaro is also the first celluloid tribute to the eleven Mohun Bagan players who won the shield, ten of them playing barefoot clad in folded dhotis with just one of them, Sudhir Chatterjee, wearing boots against a team with the right kit, boots, dress, infrastructural support and the typical bias of the White rulers against the coloured Ruled. But Egaro is not just about football. It is about the patriotic passion that drove these eleven players to unite thousands of Indians from the entire eastern regions who flocked in from Dhaka, Burdwan, Midnapore crossing barriers of caste, class, community and language to watch the players kick and beat up the British teams on the playing field without being punished by the rulers because it was all in the game. It is about the killer spirit where the killer took prominence not because it was a fight to finish, but because the final match was a battlefield where the winning could speed the movement against Imperial rule and towards freedom. It did, in a manner of speaking. After the historic win on 29 July 1911, the British felt pressured enough to shift its capital from Calcutta to Delhi on 12 December the same year.)
