Members of SPARK, a local NGO from Singtam bazaar, had a get-together on November 1 to celebrate the success of its member Prakash Sundas, who had won the singing competition at the recently concluded Namchi Mahotsav 2010, held on 28-30 October at Bhaichung Stadium, Namchi. It should be noted that Prakash Sundas is a lone participant of the Indian Idol 5 from Sikkim who went through Mumbai round this year.
Prakash Sundas was welcomed by Praveen Pradhan, President of SPARK, at the SPARK Office. Speaking on the occasion Praveen Pradhan told that Prakash Sundas’s triumph should not be considered a small achievement, a winner is always a winner whether the competition is held at smaller or in larger scale. As a part of our five-month-old NGO, it is a great day for us, added Praveen Pradhan.
More than a dozen members of SPARK NGO had gathered at its office, including members of Basibiyalo Organization headed by Mohan Pradhan and TB Pradhan. Both echoed that they are happy about the success of Prakash Sundas.
Prakash had been associated with Basibiyalo, a monthly literary meeting, more than a couple of times, and we have high regard for his singing abilities, both said. Rekha Chettri and Ashim Pradhan said that Prakash had made our NGO proud, and we wish him many more successes in the coming days.
Prakash Sundas expressed happiness on the outcome of the results at Namchi Mahotsav. He regarded the competition as not an easy task. He had 21 competing competitors from different parts of Sikkim, including singing competition winners. He added that Namchi Crowd was very encouraging and supported me in every performance of the three days.
Through these news reports, he wanted to thank the competition's distinguished judges and musical bands for their endless hard work. He also thanked members of SPARK NGOs, Basibiyalo, Aruna Manger, Taal Music & Dance Company, Eagle Band, and the organizing committee for their support. It was a proud moment for me when, on the inaugural day, I had a chance to meet our Chief Minister, Dr. Pawan Kumar Chamling, on stage and click a photograph with him, he said.
