Speaking further Fr. Kyriel D’Souza stated that tiatr and its activities have got an excellent forward push to the development of tiatr because of the formation of Tiatr Academy Goa by the Government of Goa.

Shri. Tomazinho Cardozo, President of TAG in his welcome address stated that although the tiatr is almost 120 years old, yet there is total lack of publication of books of the scripts written by hundreds of tiatr artistes. It is for this reason that scripts of artistes of yester years are not found in present times for undertaking study of tiatr and its activities   
                                                                               in the past.

Vincy Quadros, spoke on the merits and demerits of the book ‘Avoyn Kelem Pap, Putan Dili Zap written by late William de Curtorim.
