Harijan Sevak Sangh, not only founded by Mahatma Gandhi himself but also the institution for which constitution was penned by Gandhiji himself, extends heartiest congratulations to the Chief Minister of Tamil Nadu, C. Joseph Vijay for his directive to close liquor shops located near educational institutions, places of worship, and bus stands. For many years, Gandhian organisations and women’s groups across the State have been appealing for such a humane and socially responsible measure. This decision has brought renewed hope to many who believe in a disciplined and value-based society.
