The jam-packed AMCOSA Auditorium here suddenly fell silent on Sunday as Chief Justice of India N.V. Ramana said he was pained to see the hoardings welcoming him all over the city.
“You should have put up hoardings of the great writer, lawyer and humanist Raavi Sastri, whose birth centenary is being celebrated today. I think it is wrong to put my hoardings. You must have done it out of your love for me,” said Justice Ramana, who participated as the chief guest at the valedictory of the centenary celebrations of Raavi Sastri, organised by the Visakha Rasagna Vedika.
“I suggest you to put up some permanent hoardings of Raavi Sastri and his messages, particularly in the court, and at major junctions, so that they serve a constant reminder to the legal fraternity and the privileged sections of their duty towards the common people, apart from perpetuating the memory of the great lawyer and humanist,” Justice Ramana advised.
