New Delhi: Prime Minister Manmohan Singh today released a compendium of selected essays from Seminar, the journal that completes 50 years this year.

"I am very privileged to have this opportunity of releasing this unique volume which is a collection of some 60 essays which appeared in various pages of Seminar," he said.

The new work is compiled by Malvika Singh and Rudranshu Mukherji.

"In many ways, the issues that (Seminar founders) Raj and Romesh (Thapar) set out to deal with they have not lost their values ... these are issues which still dominate the social, economic and political debate in our country and its remarkable that Rudranshu has been able to pick 60 essays which have not lost their freshness even after 50 years," the prime minister said.

"And that is a tribute to the vision of Raj and Romesh and we all have to be grateful to Mala and Tejbir for having carried out their obligation to the parents in a such a skilful, dedicated manner that one can say with clear conscience that Seminar has lived up to the vision of its founders," he said.
