The masses should get free food, water and education, says scholar, after inaugurating I-Day celebrations
Scholar Shikaripura Krishnamurthy on Sunday advocated free provision of basic amenities — food, water and education — to the masses in the country even as he said that everyone should adopt the Nation First concept instead of caste and creed. He was speaking after inaugurating the 75th Independence Day celebrations at Mangalore University, Mangala Gangothri, here. If one looks at the basic needs from business perspective, it leads to social degeneration. He further said, “It is time for introspection. We should adopt Nation First concept, while all other things, including caste and creed, should come next.” University Vice-Chancellor P. Subrahmanya Yadapadithaya said that the New Education Policy will bring about a comprehensive change in the country. Registrar Kishore Kumar, Registrar (Evaluation) P.L. Dharma and others were present.More Related News
