“महान कथाकार मुंशी प्रेमचंद जी को उनकी जन्म-जयंती पर आदरपूर्ण श्रद्धांजलि। अपनी कालजयी रचनाओं के माध्यम से उन्होंने मानवीय संवेदनाओं को ऐसी सशक्त अभिव्यक्ति दी, जो आज भी प्रासंगिक है। अपनी जन्मभूमि और कर्मभूमि काशी की साहित्यिक विरासत को विश्व पटल पर पहचान दिलाने में भी उनका अमूल्य योगदान रहा है। यथार्थ और सामाजिक समानता पर आधारित उनका अमर साहित्य देशवासियों के लिए सदैव प्रेरणा का स्रोत बना रहेगा।”
