Addressing the district office bearers of Trade and Intellectual Cells in a meeting held at party office at Tej Sapru Marg here on Sunday, Dr Joshi gave a clarion call to fight unitedly against all-round attack on Indian culture.

He alerted the party workers to become aware of ongoing ideological confrontations that may create an awkward situation as far educated employment of youths was concerned.

If awareness was not created immediately then the coming time would be full of hardships, said former national president of BJP.

Traders and small businessmen were bound to face a tough period because of the government decision to allow investment in small or cottage industry of the country.

In such case, lakhs of small vendors may be deprived of their livelihood which would be an attack on backbone of village economy. Spreading of convent school culture was a dangerous sign for the nation hence the people should come forward in protecting our mother tongue.

District president Narendra Deo Pandey in his address said that party would try its best to fight against attack on Indian culture. Shivkumar Vaish, Raghevendra Prasad Mishra, Shrinath Dwievdi, Ram Lakhan Lal Shukla, Basant Lal Tiwari, Rajaram Shukla, Krishna Chandra Kesarwani, Rambabu Kesarwani, Ramesh Chandra, Nand Kumar Kesarwani and Nand Kumar Gupta spoke on the
occasion.
