The meeting, organized in view of Independence Day, took place near the Mahakaliyamman Temple in Vadugampalayam.

Addressing the gathering as a special guest, Collector Pati said, "Freedom fighters struggled not only for the country's independence but also for the progress of people's lives. Local bodies and Gram Sabha meetings were established to ensure a government for the people and by the people."
