Dr Manmohan Singh to deliver lecture on 'role of students'

Gandhinagar, Mar 17: Former Prime Minister Manmohan Singh will deliver a lecture on 'role of students in the future of India' at an educational institute here on March 19.

Senior Congress leader Shankersinh Vaghela made this announcement here today. Singh would speak at an educational institute, run by Vaghela.

"I am pleased to announce that our former PM will give his lecture at Bapu Gujarat Knowledge Village (GKV) campus on March 19," Vaghela told reporters.

The former PM was scheduled to visit the institute on February 27. However, the event was postponed after the Special Protection Group (SPG) apparently gave negative feedback about his visit at that time.
