Vice President releases Lok Sabha 2018 calendar

New Delhi, Dec 28: The Vice President of India M. Venkaiah Naidu has released the Lok Sabha calendar 2018 on Thursday, which is based on the theme of inscriptions in parliament.

Naidu said the theme of the calendar is unique and motivating and the sublime messages in the inscriptions were pearls of wisdom and part of the country's philosophical traditions.

He said Parliament discusses the entire range of activities of a nation and deliberations of the "august body" should be inspired by the highest traditions of truth and righteousness.

Naidu said that the inscriptions would give the visitor insights into the timeless values on which the country's way of life is anchored.

Speaker Sumitra Mahajan said that the calendar provides glimpses of inscriptions nestled on domes, arches, chambers and other places in the Parliament House building.
