Concurrently, another gathering at Vidarbha Sahitya Sangh's Granth Sahavas, titled 'Guj-Goshti Chaitra Vaishakh Milanachya,' brought together literary enthusiasts. Guided by library director Swati Moharir, the event used seasonal metaphors of Chaitra and Vaishakh to frame the essence of creative effort and realization.
