Amul’s ad tribute to late Manohar Parrikar echoes in Goa assembly

Panaji: Former Goa Chief Minister late Manohar Parrikar features on the iconic Amul Butter billboard advertisement because he was a colossal leader and won both the hearts and minds of the people, Cabinet Minister Vijai Sardesai told the state legislative assembly on Wednesday.

“The (Amul Butter) cartoon is an expression of a big event in the country,” Sardesai said during a condolence motion which was moved by BJP MLA Rajesh Patnekar on Wednesday to condole the deaths of the former Defence Minister, former deputy Chief Minister Francis D’Souza and former deputy Speaker Vishnu Wagh.

Sardesai said that he had seen the black and white Amul butter ad, with a caption that reads ‘Har Goan ka Manohar’, on National Highway 17 while he was on the way to the state assembly. (IANS)
