Everyone should remember this day. For the first time, ‘Gram Diwas’ started with Charilam in Tripura, Checharimai Gram Panchayat held first ‘Gram Diwas’ today, to take blessings from guardians for doing good work. The meaning of ‘Gram Diwas’ is that our loyalty to the village is an illusion of the soil of the village. No matter how great a doctor engineer he is, he will have a different status towards the village, then he will be considered a human being. A developed village means a developed India.”
