The Chief Minister, Dr Pramod Sawant, unfurled the tricolour to mark the celebration of India’s 75th Independence Day at a function held at the Memorial of Freedom Fighters at Patradevi, Pernem taluka today. He said this year we were celebrating Azadi ka Amrut Mahotsav and announced that this year will be dedicated to ‘Rastrvad and Rastraprem’ by organizing various programmes in every school, panchayat, talukas etc.
While celebrating 75 years of Azadi ka Amrut Mahotsav, the Government will felicitate each and every freedom fighter who has sacrificed their lives during the freedom struggle. Pernem taluka is a ‘Vir Bhumi’ as many freedom fighters from this Taluka had sacrificed their lives during the freedom struggle.
The two main and special projects – Mopa International Airport and symbol of freedom struggle Martyrs Memorial(symbol of freedom struggle) will be inaugurated soon, ushering in the development of Pernem taluka, he remarked.
