As part of the ‘Azadi Ka Amrit Mahotsav’ celebrations, the National Service Scheme (NSS) wing of the Government Degree College for Women at Madanapalle in Annamayya district has come out with an art gallery with rare photographs of freedom fighters and moments of the Independence struggle.
NSS Coordinator and English lecturer Mohana Valli formed a team with students of the English department to collect rare photographs of freedom fighters, including Mahatma Gandhi, Sardar Patel, Jawaharlal Nehru, Jhansi Lakshmi Bai, Alluri Sitarama Raju and others.
About 50 photographs were collected, including some in the digital format. “Without damaging the publications, we employed the services of a photographer to take a snap of the rare pictures in high resolution. We got them printed, and got some of them laminated and some others framed. In black and white, they replicate the glory of our freedom struggle,” Ms. Mohana Valli said.
