VP Honors Little-Known Tamil King

The Vice-President of India, C. P. Radhakrishnan, released a special postage stamp to honor a very old Tamil king named Emperor Perumbidugu Mutharaiyar II, also known as Suvaran Maran.

This king lived a long time ago and was known for being a great warrior who never lost a battle.

He ruled over parts of Tamil Nadu and was very important in history, but many people don't know about him.

The Vice-President thanked the Indian government for supporting Tamil culture and language.

He also talked about how important it is to recognize people who have not been given enough credit for their contributions.

The Vice-President praised the king's efforts and mentioned other initiatives like the Kashi Tamil Sangamam.

He also spoke about the teachings of Sri Sathya Sai Baba, who was known for his messages of love, peace, and service to others.

The Vice-President said these teachings are very important for building a better society.

The event was attended by important government officials, including Union Minister Nirmala Sitharaman and Rajya Sabha Deputy Chairman Harivansh Narayan Singh.
