All these distinguished attendees shared their literary creations like reciting poems, reviewing the book, and ideas, and experience about literature and identity. Specifically, litterateur Shivalal Dahal and senior journalist, writer Bhakta Ghimire were scheduled to review the book. While speaking, Dahal revealed that the book is well written and mentioned that it carries the historical importance of all resettled and exiled Bhutanese; however, he also pointed out a few weaknesses, such as a lack of citations, some maturity issues, etc. Well, in response to Dahal, Dr. Prof. Hariprashand Adhikari suggested that we need to search and look for the positive aspect of anything. Even our religious scriptures have a lot of weak sides, but finding good out of it is a good practice. On the other hand, eminent senior writer Krishna Dharabasi forwarded an idea on how we can globalize our writings. He focused on book translation and online presence. On behalf of an organization, GBLO president Denzome Sampang expressed congratulations and best wishes.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
