Thiruvananthapuram, June 24 (UNI) Prime Minister Narendra Modi will inaugurate the centenary celebration of the historic conversation between two of India’s greatest spiritual and moral leaders, Sree Narayana Guru and Mahatma Gandhi, on Tuesday.
The PM will inaugurate the event at Vigyan Bhawan in New Delhi in the presence of several spiritual leaders and heads of many spiritual and community organisations.
The historic conversation took place at Sivagiri Mutt on 12 March 1925 during Mahatma Gandhi’s visit and centred around Vaikom Satyagraha, religious conversions, non-violence, abolition of untouchability, attainment of salvation, and the uplift of the downtrodden, among others.

It stands as a powerful tribute to the shared vision of social justice, unity, and spiritual harmony championed by both Sree Narayana Guru and Mahatma Gandhi. The PM will also address the gathering on the occasion.
Representatives of Sivagiri Mutt and various organisations, including the Delhi unit of Sree Narayana Dharma Paripalana Sangham (SNDP), All India Malayali Association, NSS Delhi Union, Malayali Association in Delhi, KPMS Delhi Unit and Vishwakarma Samajam, will attend the event.
