Celebrating National Reading Day 2025: Honoring the Legacy of P.N. Panicker

Today, June 19, we commemorate National Reading Day, a tribute to the enduring legacy of Puthuvayil Narayana Panicker, revered as the "Father of India's Library Movement." His unwavering commitment to literacy and education transformed Kerala into a beacon of reading culture, inspiring generations across the nation.

In 1945, Panicker established the Kerala Granthasala Sangham, initiating a grassroots library movement that expanded from 47 rural libraries to over 6,000 by 1956. His visionary efforts earned international acclaim, culminating in the UNESCO Krupsakaya Award in 1975. To further his mission, he founded the Kerala Association for Non-Formal Education and Development (KANFED), instrumental in achieving Kerala's remarkable literacy rate. 


As a librarian, I invite everyone to embrace the spirit of this day:

  • Read and Reflect: Dedicate time to reading a book that inspires or challenges you.

  • Share the Joy: Discuss your favorite reads with friends and family, fostering a community of readers.

  • Support Libraries: Visit your local library, participate in reading programs, or consider donating books to promote literacy.

Let us honor P.N. Panicker's legacy by nurturing a culture of reading, recognizing its power to enlighten minds and transform lives.

Happy National Reading Day!

ಕನ್ನಡ ಸಾಹಿತ್ಯದ ಇತಿಹಾಸದಲ್ಲಿ ಹೆಮ್ಮೆಪಡುವ ಕ್ಷಣ!

 à²•ನ್ನಡ ಸಾಹಿತ್ಯದ ಇತಿಹಾಸದಲ್ಲಿ ಹೆಮ್ಮೆಪಡುವ ಕ್ಷಣ!

ಈ ವಾಕ್ಯದಲ್ಲಿ "📢 ಕನ್ನಡ ಸಾಹಿತ್ಯದ ಇತಿಹಾಸದಲ್ಲಿ ಹೆಮ್ಮೆಪಡುವ ಕ್ಷಣ!" ಎಂಬುದರ ಅರ್ಥ:

  • 📢: ಗಮನ ಸೆಳೆಯುವ ಸೂಚನೆ, ಉದಾಹರಣೆಗೆ, "ಶ್ರದ್ಧೆ ನೀಡಿ!" ಅಥವಾ "ಸುದ್ದಿ!" ಎಂಬ ಅರ್ಥದಲ್ಲಿ.

  • ಕನ್ನಡ ಸಾಹಿತ್ಯದ ಇತಿಹಾಸದಲ್ಲಿ: ಕನ್ನಡ ಭಾಷೆಯ ಸಾಹಿತ್ಯದ ದೀರ್ಘ ಇತಿಹಾಸದಲ್ಲಿ.

  • ಹೆಮ್ಮೆಪಡುವ ಕ್ಷಣ: ಅಹಂಕಾರ ಮತ್ತು ಸಂತೋಷದಿಂದ ತುಂಬಿದ ಸಮಯ.

ಇದು, ಕನ್ನಡ ಸಾಹಿತ್ಯವು ಅಂತಾರಾಷ್ಟ್ರೀಯ ಮಟ್ಟದಲ್ಲಿ ಗುರುತಿಸಲ್ಪಟ್ಟಿರುವ ಮಹತ್ವದ ಸಾಧನೆ ಅಥವಾ ಘಟನೆಗೆ ಸಂಬಂಧಿಸಿದಂತೆ, ಕನ್ನಡಿಗರು ಹೆಮ್ಮೆಪಡುವಂತಹ ಕ್ಷಣವನ್ನು ಸೂಚಿಸುತ್ತದೆ.

ಇತ್ತೀಚೆಗೆ, ಬಾನು ಮುಷ್ತಾಕ್ ಅವರ 'ಹಾರ್ಟ್ ಲ್ಯಾಂಪ್' ಎಂಬ ಕಥಾ ಸಂಕಲನವು 2025 ರ ಇಂಟರ್‌ನ್ಯಾಷನಲ್ ಬೂಕರ್ ಪ್ರಶಸ್ತಿಯನ್ನು ಗೆದ್ದಿದೆ. ಇದು ಕನ್ನಡ ಭಾಷೆಯ ಮೊದಲ ಕೃತಿಗೆ ಈ ಗೌರವ ದೊರಕಿದ್ದು, ಕನ್ನಡ ಸಾಹಿತ್ಯದ ಇತಿಹಾಸದಲ್ಲಿ ಮಹತ್ವದ ಸಾಧನೆಯಾಗಿದೆ .

ಈ ರೀತಿಯ ಸಾಧನೆಗಳು ಕನ್ನಡ ಭಾಷೆಯ ಶಕ್ತಿ ಮತ್ತು ಸೌಂದರ್ಯವನ್ನು ಜಾಗತಿಕ ವೇದಿಕೆಯಲ್ಲಿ ತೋರಿಸುತ್ತವೆ.
