State Bureau, Lucknow. The simplicity, honesty and ideals of national service of former Prime Minister Lal Bahadur Shastri will always inspire all of us to move forward on the path of duty. He played a leading role in the freedom struggle and gave successful leadership to independent India. He was an embodiment of simplicity.
Deputy Chief Minister Keshav Prasad Maurya said these things in a program organized at the camp office on the occasion of the death anniversary of Lal Bahadur Shastri on Sunday.
The Deputy Chief Minister paid tribute by placing wreaths and floral tributes on his photo and said that Lal Bahadur Shastri showed the country the path to security and self-reliance with the slogan 'Jai Jawan-Jai Kisan'. The resolve of self-reliant India and developed India under the leadership of Prime Minister Modi is the modern form of his thinking.
