School Visit By MGR

Sri MGR Year 94, 19th December, Monday

 

Twice in a year (January 2nd week and 3rd week of December) that Dinamalar always remembers MGR by giving an unheard news with rare images in the Dinamalar Sunday edition. This time Dinamalar has given an account of MGR visiting a School in Madurai.

 

The article was written by Madurai S.S.Ramakrishnan. The article was published in Varamalar dated 18th December 2011.

In July 1979 our beloved Leader Puratchi Thalaivar MGR attended the Platinum Jubilee of Sourashtra School Madurai, he was then the Chief Minister of Tamil Nadu. As usual he was handed over the Visitors (or) Guest book, MGR turned the pages and took note about other leaders who have written earlier.

Same time the Ministers were speaking, MGR was observing the speech, talks with others guests and also wrote a full page in the visitors log.
