Appealing to the people to work for women education, he said that it was the responsibility of every citizen to ensure that child marriages should not be taken place. Commissioner of Police V Satyanarayana opined that every day, people should follow the principles of Jyotirao Phule, who worked for education, enlightenment and empowerment of women besides fighting against social inequalities.
Additional Collector Garima Agarwal appealed to the people to take forward the aspirations of Phule, who waged relentless struggle for girl child education and social and economic growth of weaker sections. BC Welfare Officer Rajamanohar, Corporators Marri Bhavana, Ilender Yadav, Guggila Jayasree, and Madhavi, BC welfare association state general secretary K Sridhar Raju, working president Bollam Lingamurthi and others participated in celebrations.
