Annual lecture series instituted

NEW DELHI: An annual lecture series was instituted here coinciding with the 39th birth anniversary of Major Gopi, who died fighting terrorists in Kashmir in 2005.

Director in Prime Minister’s Office, S. N. Sahu, delivered the inaugural lecture on the theme “Mahatma Gandhi as a Management Guru”. Mr. Sahu said that many issues such as customer relations, corporate social responsibility and total quality, which are central to the discipline of management were taken up by Gandhiji during the freedom struggle.

He mentioned that Havard Business School declared Gandhiji as the Management Guru of the twentieth century. He also recalled that late Major Gopi emphasised on philosophical approach to life. He said that Major Gopi also reflected on the issue in his introductory remarks in his anthology of poems.

Some of the poems composed by Major Gopi were also read out.
