Thiruvananthapuram: Kerala raises India’s profile in front of the world, said President Ramnath Kovind. Malayalees raise the pride of India in front of the world, the President added.
He was unveiling the statue of P N Panicker at Poojappura, Thiruvananthapuram.
The unity of culture is raised at the highest level by Kerala.
In the indexes of Human Resource Development and Sustainable Development, Kerala is ahead of other states in India. Successive governments have focused on the growth and development of Kerala. This helped Kerala to sustain its leadership in many areas.
People born in Kerala bagged respect from the country and world also. The expatriates from Kerala not only send money but also raise India’s pride with their activities.
He appreciated the doctors and nurses of Kerala. Kerala has a library even in remote villages. The people in Kerala have an emotional relationship with libraries.
The libraries set up by P N Panikar’s movement become nerve centers of social and cultural works.
I am happy to note that the commendable work done by P.N. Panicker Foundation resulted in the setting up of P.N. Panicker Vigyan Vikas Kendra by the Government of Kerala as an autonomous organization, he said.
