The North America Nazrul Conference is a
platform of the
North America Nazrul Conference Committee (NANCC).The Conference offers researchers, singers,
poets and dancers the chance to gather and exchange creative work
through
seminars and performances, consistent with the mission statement of the
NANCC.
The first conference was organized by
Shoukhin Cultural
Group of New Jersey, in the year 1990. Subsequent to this breakthrough
event,
an ad-hoc North America Nazrul Conference Committee (NANCC) was formed.During the second Nazrul Conference (1992),
hosted by Taranga of Boston, the ad-hoc committee was transformed into
a full
blown Committee.Since then, the Nazrul
conference (NANC) is continuing more or less every other year, as
