In a poignant ceremony at Vice President House, Shri C.P. Radhakrishnan honored the death anniversary of Rashtra Rishi Nanaji Deshmukh, Bharat Ratna recipient and architect of rural revival. The floral tribute resonated with national admiration for his sacrifices.
On social media X, the VP elaborated: Deshmukh, the Antyodaya champion, poured his life into the welfare of society’s fringes. Key figure in Jayaprakash Narayan’s anti-Emergency crusade, he indefatigably championed democracy.
His love for village development, societal shifts, and nation-forging dedication ensures eternal remembrance.
Dharmendra Pradhan, Central Minister, prostrated virtually before the Jana Sangh co-founder, whose existence fueled rural ascent, knowledge dissemination, and autonomous communities. ‘His life of devotion beckons us to nation-building paths,’ he shared on X.
Minister G. Kishan Reddy evoked the long-term thinker, RSS propagator, who embodied Antyodaya through rural advancement, education, and village self-sufficiency visions.
CM Rekha Gupta of Delhi rendered vinamra shraddhanjali to the selfless server whose life epitomizes upliftment of the final person. Politics for him meant welfare and probity, not dominion; he devoted political heights to rural independence.
Gupta underscored his visionary ‘Village Rise Leads to Nation’s Dawn,’ pioneering self-reliance. Unparalleled humility and service pledge forever inspires public welfare pursuits.
These tributes weave a tapestry of inspiration, affirming Deshmukh’s principles as vital for India’s journey towards equitable prosperity and self-strength.
