Patna: Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar has said his government plans to knock every house with Gandhian philosophy. Mr Kumar announced his party's plan while he was speaking at a function related to Mahatma Gandhi visit to Muzaffarpur and his talks with Indigo planters Association chief Wilson a century ago. "We wish to take the country on the path of Gandhian philosophy," he said.
Bihar is seeing a grand celebration of 100 years of Champaran Satyagraha. Mr Kumar said his government has chalked out an elaborate programme to knock every house with life and thoughts of Bapu till April 21 next year. A rath would start its journey from Patna today across the state for a year to make people aware of different aspects of Gandhian values, he said.
Mr Kumar also said that "those whose focus is only to cash on the name of Gandhiji are also organising programmes on the occasion of centenary celebration of Champaran satyagraha."
Mr Kumar said Gandhians have been invited from across the country to prepare a national agenda based on Bapu's ideology. In Patna, the two-day "Rashtriya Vimarsh" (national discussion) ended yesterday.
Gandhians like Ashok Vajpayee, Shamsul Hoda and Ramdutt Tripathi spoke on Gandhijee on the concluding day of national discussion today.
