Haryana Governor Bandaru Dattatreya, who was in Delhi on Thursday, took some time out of his busy schedule to visit the Pradhanmantri Sangrahalaya on Teen Murti Marg. “It’s (the museum) so rich in collections and inspiring in appeal,” Dattatreya said. A special gallery on Prime Minister Narendra Modi was recently opened to visitors at the museum. Dattatreya was so impressed with the collection that he suggested that universities should make their students visit the Sangrahalaya, as it is “useful and informative” for them.
At Veer Gatha 3.0, an event jointly organised by the ministries of defence and education on Wednesday, a parent interrupted the programme saying the announcer excluded his granddaughter’s name during the felicitation ceremony “because she hails from Tamil Nadu”. The matter was soon resolved when the organisers admitted to having missed the name by mistake. According to sources, Defence Minister Rajnath Singh, the chief guest at the event, later spoke to the man and his granddaughter, putting the matter to rest. The event was organised to award 100 students from across the country who excelled in poem, essays, painting and multimedia presentations on acts of bravery by Indian soldiers.
