This proposal
was taken to Kamaraj. He refused for this also saying , if a land for
construction was bought public may think that he bought a bungalow. Even it may
appear in newspapers. Finally he accepted to buy land for construction of
lavatory .
On 9th October of 1961 Nehruji unveiled the statue of Kamaraj. The mayor of
Madras who presided the function said that Kamaraj was unselfish leader , a
symbol of sacrifice and lighted the education in hearts of people.
Nehurji who unveiled the statute said " A Real Example for a true leader
, hailed from the public , a leader who has a capability to complete the
responsibility he has taken. I unveil the statute of the leader who forgets
himself when he serves the public. I don't like to install statutes for the
persons who are alive. I strongly believe to pay homage only after death. But ,
Kamaraj being a friend of mine and as he hailed from the public i accept to
unveil his statute."
