The Mumbai Marathi Sahitya Sangh is introducing its language learning course in an online avatar, making it accessible to a wider audience
The course will be held online
If you switch on a tube light, it only lights up what's beneath it, but if you light a samayi [Marathi: a metal lamp], its radiance illuminates the whole room." This is how Suhasini Kirtikar, coordinator of the Marathi language course at the Mumbai Marathi Sahitya Sangh (MMSS), describes the significance of the 85-year-old institution taking its decades-old course online for the first time. Starting in January, the course, originally designed for non-Marathi speakers, will be open to adults and students, as well as those familiar with the language.
