Prayagraj,

11 Oct (HS): Loknayak Jayaprakash Narayan was fondly remembered on his birth

anniversary alongwith the megastar of the century Amitabh Bachchan on his

birthday and their contributions in their respective fields were discussed in

depth. Under the leadership of BJP Metropolitan spokesperson Pawan Srivastava,

a floral tribute was offered at the statue of Jayaprakash Narayan in Manmohan

Park and he was paid respectful homage. On this occasion, he said that

Jayaprakash was the person whose campaign led to the defeat of the Indira

Gandhi government led by the Congress. In 1977, the people of India were

distressed by the functioning of the Congress, and Loknayak's campaign brought

relief to the people of the country. He called for a total

revolution at that time and said, Vacate the throne, the people are

coming. Only Loknayak had the courage to overthrow the tyrannical government

from power. In 1999, Narayan was posthumously awarded India's highest civilian

award, the Bharat Ratna, for his social service.

Remembering

megastar Amitabh Bachchan, Pawan Srivastava said that he is a pride not only

for Prayagraj but for the country. Bachchan's contribution in the field of film

and art is incomparable. Today's youth should learn from his activeness even at

the age of 84 and should follow him to remain eternally young. One should

strive to live a hardworking and disciplined life like him, these qualities

take a person to great heights. On this occasion, councilor Neeraj Gupta, Rahul

Srivastava, Kushagra Srivastava, Gaurish Ahuja, Shailendra Srivastava,

Umashankar Pal, Alok Srivastava, government advocate Satyaprakash Srivastava

etc. were present.
