    Congrats to KONCAB for organising such a beautiful platform for showcasing the talents of the young & old for the 17th year in succession.Great job indeed!. It was a treat to see the small kids in the fancy dress competition as well as dance & songs.. Kudos to the parents who take so much of pains to bring out the talents of their children.It was also great to see the not-so-young ladies & gents participating with gusto! On the whole, it was a beautiful day for all the Konkanites. One suggestion is -if only the dances(children) were accompanied by Konkani songs, it would be a promotional gesture towards Konkani.
