Govt plans photographic tribute to Ambedkar Express News Service Posted online: Sunday , Mar 21, 2010 at 0154 hrs Mumbai : The Maharashtra government has decided to release a book of photographs showing the life of B R Ambedkar, on his birth anniversary on April 14. The government has already published 21 volumes of his writings and speeches and the 22nd volume would be his ‘photo-biography’. NCP member (and state chief) Madhukar Pichad on Saturday, through a Calling Attention motion in the Assembly, said the publication of further volumes of Ambedkar’s writings had been delayed as the government had failed to address problems of the committee constituted for publishing Ambedkar’s unpublished literature. MoS for Higher and Technical Education Varsha Gaikwad said the ‘photo-biography’ would be published and nine volumes reprinted, while Higher and Technical Education Minister Rajesh Tope said problems faced by the publishing panel headed by Datta Bhagat would be solved within eight days. Pimpri-Chinchwad land acquisition disputes, CM to intervene A meeting would be convened to discuss disputes over land acquired and leased by Pimpri-Chinchwad New Town Development Authority. Replying to a Calling Attention motion by Independent MLA Vilas Lande from Bhosari (Pune) CM Ashok Chavan admitted there were some illegal transactions and also demands from some residents to convert from leasehold to freehold. He said he would discuss the matter. ------------------------------------ ---- INFORMATION OVERLOAD? Get all ZESTCaste mails sent out in a span of 24 hours in a single mail.
