M.P. Sreekumaran Nair, former professor of History at the University of Calicut, was on Saturday remembered for his objective and fair approach to the teaching of history.
The eighth death anniversary of Sreekumaran Nair was observed here at a function jointly organised by Historia, a collective of former students of the History department of University College, Thiruvananthapuram, and the Chettur Sankaran Nair Foundation.
T.R. Venugopalan, former principal of Government College, Pattambi, who delivered the memorial lecture, stressed the importance of ‘impartial history.’ Sreekumaran Nair, who taught the subject for over 30 years, adhered to the concept of ‘impartial history,’ he said.
