SR

Chief of Bharatiya Swabhimaan Andolan KN Govindacharya on Sunday emphasised the need for prudent use of public funds in social life.

He was addressing members attending the two-day National Working Committee meeting of the organisation which began here at Agrasen Bhavan at Tatibandh in the city.

Govindacharya while stressing on the need for taking the movement to every village of the country said that one needs to take into account even minor issues in public life. 

He said that the MPs in Delhi are provided flats and bungalows by the Government but this trend is not prevalent in Britain.

In Britain, the housing facility is provided only during the conduct of the Parliament Session and the same are then utilised for other work once the session gets over, Govindacharya said. In a similar way, one needs to be prudent about spending public money, he said.

Andolan Convenor Surendra Mishra said that the prime objective of the movement is to bring change.

He said that there are three types of organisations being run right now under the movement — The Swabhiman Andolan, which has an agitational posture besides Bharat Vikas Sangam and Chanakya Shodh Sansthan.

The meeting is being attended by office bearer of the Andolan from across the country. Earlier, former chairman of State Finance Commission Virendra Pandey delivered the welcome address.

late in the evening on Sunday, Govindacharya addressed a public meeting in the city besides there is a public meeting scheduled for him at Bhilai apart from his programme to attend a Convention of Panchayat representatives at Mahasamund in the State.
