The Hindu
Former CM had appreciated positive aspects of school
Former Chief Minister M. Karunanidhi, who was among the first 15 members of the DMK to enter the Legislative Assembly in 1957, had earnestly performed his duty as an elected representative from the Kulithalai constituency back then. A note penned by him as an MLA in the visitors’ book at the Panchayat Union Primary School at Vengampatti, near Krishnarayapuram, was shared on social media by Karur district's new Collector T. Prabhu Shankar, who visited the school for inspection on Friday. For Dr. Shankar, it was the first inspection after assuming office as Karur Collector. On being informed that the former Chief Minister had visited the school in 1959, Dr. Shankar, who was on a surprise visit to the village to check the COVID-19 preventive measures, asked the school authorities whether there was any record of the former CM’s visit. They showed him the visitors’ book, which is being preserved for more than seven decades.More Related News
