TO MARK the 150th birth year of Bal Ganga Dhar Tilak and the birth centenary of Chandra Sekhar Azad, a seminar was organised in the Library Hall of Allahabad High Court Bar Association (HCBA) today.
Addressing the seminar, a member of governing council of HCBA, Ashish Dubey, said young lawyers should take inspiration from the great patriot Tilak and the great revolutionary Azad to fight injustice and violence.
Presiding over the programme, joint secretary (Library) HCBA, Santosh Kumar Pandey, said Tilak’s slogan ‘Swaraj is my birth right and I shall have it’ must be followed by all citizens to allay exploitation and tyranny.
He said after independence, a section of our leaders made all possible efforts to
divide the nation in the name of caste and religion.
So, at this juncture, the slogan of ‘Jai Hind’can help keep India united and stronger.
Conducting the meeting, joint secretary (Press), Shashi Sekhar Tiwari, said following the footsteps of Azad, the nation could be rid of corruption, anarchy and terrorism.
Besides, one should follow the teachings of Tilak, who connected spiritualism with nationalism.
