Cover of the book
Sreedhanya's achievement is a message to the nation. The tribal and Dalit communities are marginalized in most of the places in our country. Though Kerala witnessed a social renaissance under the leadership of Ayyankali, Sree Narayana Guru and Chattambi Swamikal, we should see where we have reached now. The target of education is to create good human beings. Those in top positions should remember that they are holding the post for the public, Shreyams Kumar said.

The ceremony held at Padmaprabha Public Library was presided over by K Prakashan. C Divakaran introduced the book to the audience. Sreedhanya's father Suresh, P Chathukutty, Soopy Palliyalil, A K Babu, Prasanna Kumar, Dr TPV Surendran, M P Paily and B Arun Kumar addressed the gathering. Writer O K Johnny unveiled the portrait of late poet Akkitham in MP Veerendra Kumar Memorial Hall of the library.
