Krishna Vesha

The annual Krishna Vesha competitions organised by Kalkura Foundation will be held with cultural zeal and traditional gaiety at the historic Kadri Sri Manjunatha temple premises on August 23.

Apart from the usual nine categories of competitions, the organisers have added new ones: 'Kanda Krishna' for the teeny-weeny lot and 'Shankanada' (conch blowing) in traditional costumes.

Foundation President S.Pradeep Kumar Kalkura told reporters that Kanda Krishna was exclusively for little ones below one year and parents could lead their children on stage.

The Shankanada in traditional costumes would be a special attraction where contestants have to blow the conch. It will be held in two sections- the first for children upto std.7 and the second for all including children above std.7. Girls and women too can take part.

There will also be a Krishna quiz programme for children where the questionnaire is released on the spot.
