Mysore/Mysuru:
Ten teachers were felicitated and presented ‘Jeevanadi Cauvery’ awards in memory of Nambiyapanda Gowru Ponnavva at a function held in the premises of Akkana Balaga School in Agrahara in the city on Tuesday.
The award presentation function was jointly organised by Cauvery Balaga and Hiranmayi Pratishtana.
Speaking at the function, writer Bannur K. Raju said it is essential that education and health must be provided to everyone without any bias like in many developed countries.
“Unfortunately in our country, both these vital sectors are in firm grip of private organisations which has deprived both education and health to poor and middle class people,” he regretted saying it has become essential that these two sectors be nationalised in the interest of majority of people in the country.
