Prime Minister Narendra Modi launched three books detailing the life and journey of former Vice President M. Venkaiah Naidu through a video conference on Sunday.
PM Modi expressed his sentiments ahead of Venkaiah Naidu’s 75th birthday on July 1, highlighting his remarkable life journey filled with extraordinary achievements and significant milestones. PM Modi expressed his happiness on releasing the biography along with two other books.
“Tomorrow, 1st July, is Venkaiah Naidu’s birthday. His life journey is completing 75 years. These 75 years have been of extraordinary achievements. These 75 years have been of amazing milestones. I am happy that today I have got the opportunity to release his biography as well as 2 more books,” PM Modi said.
“I believe that these books will inspire people and show them the right direction of national service. I have had the opportunity to work with Venkaiah Naidu for a very long time. When he was the national president of the party, when he was a senior cabinet colleague in the government, when he was the Vice President of the country and the Chairman of the Rajya Sabha,” he added.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi remarked on the occasion, reflecting on the 50th anniversary of the Emergency imposed by the Congress party, which he characterized as a period that tarnished the Constitution’s prestige. He praised Venkaiah Naidu as a stalwart who actively opposed the Emergency and endured imprisonment for approximately 17 months. Modi referred to Naidu as a trusted ally and comrade who demonstrated resilience and courage during those challenging times.
“It has been 50 years since the Emergency was imposed by Congress by tarnishing the prestige of the Constitution. Venkaiah ji was among those who fought against the Emergency and at that time Venkaiah ji was in jail for about 17 months. I consider him as my true comrade who was tested in the fire of Emergency,” PM Modi said.
