Mangaluru, Nov 29: Veteran freedom fighter H S Doreswamy has declined to accept ‘Nudisiri’ award of this year.
Doreswamy has cited ideological differences with organiser of ‘Nudisiri’ Dr M Mohan Alva from Moodbidri, for declining the prestigious award.
Doreswamy has also decided not to participate in the annual event held this year from December 1 to 3.
As per Doreswamy, Dr Mohan Alva was heading one of the committees connected to Dharma Sansad convention held in Udupi recently. Hence he is having ideological differences with Dr Alva.
At the same time Doreswamy has lauded Dr Alva for his achievements in education, arts and literature. “I respect Dr Alva for his encouragement and patronage of education, arts and literature,” he said.
