Nammalvar remembered on his first death anniversary

Salem (Tamil Nadu): To encourage people undertake organic farming and to produce vegetables on their own, three types of vegetable seeds and two types of spinach seeds were distributed free of cost to the public here on Tuesday.

As part of observing the first death anniversary of organic farming scientist G. Nammalvar, ‘Seed Day' was celebrated here. Members of Green City Association and Easan Environmental Group paid floral tributes to his picture and recalled his contribution to the agricultural sector.

Nammalvar stressed on organic practices and sustainable agriculture among the public.

During the occasion, seeds were distributed to the public and students. The association members said that people should cultivate crops in their house and should not depend on others for seeds. Naturally grown vegetables and small millets should be used in daily food, they said. "It is the way to pay homage to Nammalvar." Pamphlets were also distributed to the public along with the seeds.

P.S. Senthil Kumar from Green City Association, Elango and D. Ezhilvizhan from Easan Environmental Group participated.
