Hon'ble CM's appeal to the people to maintain peace and poise

Published By : Admin | September 29, 2010 | 11:45 IST

Court verdict in the decades-old Ayodhya case is scheduled to be announced tomorrow on September 30, 2010. With the apex court removing the impediment I am sure of an early legal recourse for a solution to the dispute over Ramjanmabhoomi at Ayodhya.

The dispute remained a topic of discussion in the country due to some reason or the other for the last one week, and yet the people of Gujarat did not enter into any controversy or instigation nor did they muddle the peace prevailing in the society.

I am fully confident that after the court verdict on Ramjanmabhoomi at Ayodhya Gujarat would show to the world a unique precedence of maintaining peace, harmony and coexistence.

The court judgment on Ayodhya is scheduled at a time when the state is celebrating a democratic process of general elections to the local self-government and panchayati raj. All the political parties, the administrative machinery and the electorate are immersed in the people’s festival of sorts – alongside the socio-religious festive season like Navratri round the corner, Vijaya Dashami and Diwali next knocking at the doors, to be followed by encouraging the spirit of sportsmanship during the Swarnim Jayanti of ‘Khelkood Mahakumbh’.

We have to make a concerted effort to strengthen its competence in all round development, enjoy myriad of colours during the festivals, conduct the democratic process of elections and at the same time maintain peace and harmony.

Gujarat has to remain extra cautious as a border state. In no way can Gujarat tolerate the evil eyes and ill-intentions of the adversaries of the nation. The peace-loving people of Gujarat have long back buried violence, curfews and communal riots. It is my humble prayer to all to thwart vested interests out to anyhow pollute or disturb peace in Gujarat.

The state respects the coming court verdict on Ayodhya and is every moment awake to maintain peace, self-control and patience in the rule-of-law. It is my humble prayer to all the stakeholders the society to be extra careful from the elements hell bent on ruining the social fabric of Gujarat.

Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi chaired the 47th Annual General Meeting of the Prime Ministers Museum and Library (PMML) Society at Teen Murti Bhawan in New Delhi, earlier today.

During the meeting, Prime Minister emphasised that museums hold immense significance across the world and have the power to make us experience history. He underlined the need to make continuous efforts to generate public interest in museums and to enhance their prestige in society.

Prime Minister put forward a visionary concept of a “Museum Map of India”, aimed at providing a unified cultural and informational landscape of museums across the country.

Underlining the importance of increased use of technology, Prime Minister suggested development of a comprehensive national database of all museums in the country, incorporating key metrics such as footfall and quality standards. He also suggested organising regular workshops for those managing and operating museums, with a focus on capacity building and knowledge sharing.

Prime Minister highlighted the need for fresh initiatives, such as creation of a committee consisting of five persons from each State below the age of 35 years in order to bring out fresh ideas and perspectives on museums in the country.

Prime Minister also highlighted that with the creation of museum on all Prime Ministers, justice has been done to their legacy, including that of the first Prime Minister of India Shri Jawaharlal Nehru. This was not the case before 2014.

Prime Minister also asked for engaging top influencers to visit the museums and also invite the officials of various embassies to Indian museums to increase the awareness about the rich heritage preserved in Indian Museums.

Prime Minister advised that a compilation of all the legal battles and documents relating to the Emergency period may be prepared and preserved in light of the completion of 50 years after the Emergency.

Prime Minister highlighted the importance of preserving and documenting the present in a systematic manner. He noted that by strengthening our current systems and records, we can ensure that future generations and researchers in particular will be able to study and understand this period without difficulty.

Other Members of the PMML Society also shared their suggestions and insights for further enhancement of the Museum and Library.

Prime Minister also planted a Kapur (Cinnamomum camphora) tree in the lawns of Teen Murti House, symbolizing growth, heritage, and sustainability.
