Inamdar, who was one of the founding fathers of Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) in Gujarat, is known to be Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s mentor.
The Memorial lecture is being organised by the varsity in association with Sahakar Bharati “a pan-India organisation of Co-Operators and Co-Operatives” founded by Inamdar, popularly known as the 'Vakil Saheb' of RSS.
Inamdar was deputed in Gujarat as an RSS pracharak to inspire youngsters to join the organisation, during which PM Modi first met him in the 1960s. Inamdar is credited with shaping PM Modi’s career within the RSS. The PM has also written a biography on Inamdar, titled 'Setubandh'.
The Laxmanrao Inamdar Memorial lecture was last held at Mumbai University in 2017. The then Vice President of India Venkaiah Naidu was the Chief Guest for the lecture.
Meanwhile, Prime Minister Narendra Modi said on Saturday that his government is making sincere attempts to draft laws in a simple manner and in Indian languages to the maximum extent.
Inaugurating the International Lawyers' Conference here, he said the language used to write laws and in the judicial process plays a big role in ensuring justice.
"We in the Indian government are thinking that law should be produced in two ways. One draft will be in the language you are used to," he said to the audience drawn from the legal field. "The second draft will be in a language which the country's common man can understand. He should consider the law his own." (Agencies)
