</strong></p>The Regional Plant Quarantine Station celebrated the 
valedictory ceremony of the Hindi fortnight (Pakhwada), which started 
from September 14 and concluded here today. 
Dr Dinesh Chandra Rajak, joint director (E) and in-charge, 
presided the function. The programme was managed by Dr Anil Sehajpal, 
plant protection officer and presented by Dr Neelam Maurya, senior 
research fellow. 
All office employees, research associates and fellows 
participated in a Hindi essay writing competition held to commemorate 
the fortnight. A poetry and speech competition was also organised during
 the Hindi fortnight. It was also decided to award winners of various 
competitions.
While stressing on the need to promote Hindi among professional 
organisations, Dr Rajak said such celebrations and competitions would 
help in successful implementation of the official language policy. 
“All members are encouraged and motivated to work together in 
Hindi,” he said. All staff members of the station contributed in 
accordance to the official language policy of the nation and helped 
motivate people. <br><br><a href="http://www.tribuneindia.com/news/cities/amritsar/valedictory-function-marks-end-of-hindi-fortnight/303162.html">http://www.tribuneindia.com/news/cities/amritsar/valedictory-function-marks-end-of-hindi-fortnight/303162.html</a><br><br clear="all"></span><br>-- <br><div class="gmail_signature">**************************************<br>N.b.: Listing on the lgpolicy-list is merely intended as a service to its members<br>and implies neither approval, confirmation nor agreement by the owner or sponsor of the list as to the veracity of a message's contents. Members who disagree with a message are encouraged to post a rebuttal, and to write directly to the original sender of any offensive message.  A copy of this may be forwarded to this list as well.  (H. Schiffman, Moderator)<br><br>For more information about the lgpolicy-list, go to <a href="https://groups.sas.upenn.edu/mailman/" target="_blank">https://groups.sas.upenn.edu/mailman/</a><br>listinfo/lgpolicy-list<br>*******************************************</div>
