<h5 style="text-align: center;">“What is new under the fiery Covid sun of today is that the virus has struck and paralyzed the whole world. And technology has brought drastic changes in our lives. No poet could really remain indifferent to such an unprecedented experience. They had to come to terms with the issues and sufferings to be shared in isolation, while exploiting the new possibilities that link us to the world at any given moment.”</h5>
