I learnt with pleasure that the esteemed Unheard Voices is coming out with a special number on the role and contribution of the marginalized and weaker sections of the society in the run up to Independence in August, 1947 and development and progress of the country thereafter on the occasion of the 75th anniversary of the Independence of India, an important milestone in our national life. I take this opportunity to wish the Unheard Voices all the best and success in its endeavors to realize its motto "Knowled for Empowerment" under the aegis of Social Studies Foundation. With the launch of the Unheard Voices on April 14, birth anniversary of Babasaheb B.R. Ambedkar, this year, I am reminded of the 'Mooknayak' - the mouthpiece of Babasaheb's struggle and mission in making the voices of the under-privileged heard during the freedom struggle from the colonial rule and also for the upliftment and empowerment of the socially depressed segments of the society. I am confident that the Unheard Voices and Social Studies Foundation would contribute positively in creating much need awareness in the society to integrate the socially marginalized sections with the main stream of the society at large. The idea of 'Samrasta' is the only way to strengthen the lofty principles of Equality, Liberty, Justice and Fraternity so rightly enshrined in our Constitution. I join you all happily in these endeavors and congratulate The Unheard Voices and Social Studies Foundation on the occasion. Greetings on the Independence Day.

I find the content and presentation of these rich and excellent. There are many issues which one can learn from articles. Vijendra Sonawane ji has articulated the objectives well. Please convey my greetings to him
