On this occasion, his thoughts, struggles, and contributions to society were remembered. Ashfaq Ahmed said that Maharishi Valmiki preached truth, dignity, and humanity through his epic Ramayana, while Ganesh Shankar Vidyarthi used his pen to be the voice of the poor, laborers, exploited, and oppressed. Their lives inspire us to stand against injustice and establish love, brotherhood, and equality in society.
