“Irrespecti­ve of a good or bad mindset, people from various sections of the society have always stood behind me. A winning spree in elections in my political career is a testimony to it,” said Minister of National Highways & Shipping, Nitin Gadkari while addressing a convocatio­n ceremony at the Rambhau Mhalgi Prabodhini (RMP) in Uttan near Bhayandar on Monday.

The RMP has launched a one-year post graduate programme in leadership in politics & governance last year under the aegis of Indian Institute of Democratic Leadership (IIDL).

The first batch of IIDL consisting 32 students from 14 states, completed their coursework and graduated on 2, July.

“Apart from a will to dedicatedl­y serve the people, it is equally important to garner support and backing from all sections of the society, for a successful career in politics,” reiterated Gadkari.

MPs, Narendra Jadhav, Dr Vinay Sahasrabud­dhe and Executive RMP Director Ravindra Sathe amongst other dignitarie­s were present in the event.

Apart from imparting art of governance as a discipline, RMP’s structured residentia­l course aims at providing students with a deep insight into the country’s socio-political scenario and public administra­tion, besides inculcatin­g leadership values.
