Congress observes Nehru's death anniversary
Mangaluru, May 27: The death anniversary of the first prime minister of the country Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru was observed at the District Congress office here on Sunday.
Speaking on the occasion, former district minister Ramanath Rai said that Nehru’s contribution to the fields of agriculture, industry and other sectors has revolutionized the development of the country. His non-alignment policy has attracted the entire world towards the country. Because of the contributions of Congress leaders like Nehru, Indira Gandhi, Manmohan Singh and others, the country has been competing among developing countries in the world. Unfortunately, because of the communal forces, the society is being divided and it is detrimental to the development. In view of this, there is a need to re-implement the policies and thoughts of Nehru, he said.
District Congress president K Harish Kumar, MLC Ivan D’Souza, KPCC general secretary PV Mohan, former Rajya Sabha Member B Ibrahim, MUDA former president Ibrahim Kodijal and others spoke on the occasion. Party leaders UK Monu, KK Shahul Hameed, J Abdul Salim, Abdul Rauf, Nagaveni, Asha D’Silva, Kavitha Vasu, Prakash B, Salian, Stephan Maroli, BM Bharati, Prabhakar Sriyan, Dinesh PS, Suresh Shetty, Nazeer Bajal, Neeraj Paul, Khalid Ujire, Shafi Ahmed, Padmanabha Amin, Yusuf Ucchil, Lukman Bantwala, Piyush Thokkottu and others were present.
