BJP pays tribute to U Kiang Nangbah, asks Govt to focus on women and youth
Meghalaya BJP Mahila Morcha and BJYM paid respect and rich floral tribute to U Kiang Nangbah on his 161st death anniversary and asked people to reflect and draw inspiration from the life of the legendary freedom fighter.
At a program in State Central Library, which followed a wreath laying ceremony at the complex, president of Meghalaya BJP Mahila Morcha, Sukhi Pariat said, “We request the state Govt to focus on the various problems being faced by the single mothers. Mothers nurture the future of our society and they must be provided with all kinds of support to ensure that we bring up a next generation that guarantees a healthy society.”
“The problem of drug abuse amongst the youth is also rampant in the state today. All sections of society must work closely to ensure that the young ones are weaned away from the lure of drugs and brought back to a normal, healthy life. The Govt must also focus on poverty alleviation,” she added.
After the program at State Central Library, the team moved to Motphran and paid respect to U Kiang Nongbah by hanging flower pots. Here Smt. Sukhi Pariat stated, “Motphran is a memorial to the Khasi Martyrs who laid down their lives in France during the First World War. We request the people to keep Motphran beautiful in their honour, never paste posters on the memorial.”
