who is going to attend it after we learnt how prizes are given there? check out bharatanatyam2dance for more info.
with the same and only 2 judges coming year after year, what will change? if they want to continue giving prizes to their own students, it's up to them, but this farce is too much.

Hello bharatnatyam2,

I checked your blogger. I don't know anything about the politics mentioned or don't know if you are the writer of the column.

If so, then I am curious, what is the base of the information. There were not any similar responses agreeing with the writer.
Why I am saying this is, hopefully, (the writer) understands the responsibility when such statements are made for public viewing. That's all.

Since we have a competition of such caliber ( not from the view of what is written on the blogger) in US, I hope it is a true one and justifies the talent.
To me just learning, understanding, enjoying and praying to lord through dance is far more important than any competition.
