Ramaswami: According to reports received from many parts of the state, the reading session was held in more than 10,000 centres and it took many forms. In many districts, members of Left parties and their mass organisations were involved. In Thanjavur along with the reading session, a symposium was also held. This movement kindled a new urge among the youth and women to read Marxist classics afresh. Already a discussion is underway to select a book of Engels for such a reading to commemorate the 200th birth anniversary of Frederick Engels.
