वाचन एक संस्कार है, जो एक पीढ़ी से दूसरी पीढ़ी तक पहुँचाया जाता है। इस संस्कार को बढ़ावा देने और आने वाली पीढ़ी में नए पाठक तैयार करने के उद्देश्य से राष्ट्रीय पुस्तक न्यास, पुणे पुस्तक महोत्सव और महाराष्ट्र नेचुरल गैस लिमिटेड (MNGL) की ओर से पुणे शहर के विद्यार्थियों के लिए 'आनंदमठ' ग्रंथ के नि:शुल्क वितरण कार्य का शुभारंभ किया गया।

इस वर्ष राष्ट्रीय गीत 'वंदे मातरम' के 150 वर्ष पूरे हो गए हैं। इस पृष्ठभूमि में, इस गीत के ज्वलंत इतिहास का चित्रण 'आनंदमठ' उपन्यास में किया गया है। इस पुस्तक में भारतीय स्वतंत्रता संग्राम के कई महत्वपूर्ण पड़ावों और क्रांतिकारियों के त्याग की जानकारी दी गई है। हमारा यह इतिहास हमारी नई पीढ़ी तक पहुँचना चाहिए, इसी भावना के साथ इस पुस्तक का वितरण किया गया। यदि नई पीढ़ी में पढ़ने की रुचि जगेगी, तो भारत एक सुसंस्कृत और सशक्त राष्ट्र के रूप में उभरेगा।

इस अवसर पर शिक्षा आयुक्त श्री सचिंद्र जी सिंह, एमएनजीएल के प्रबंध निदेशक श्री कुमार शंकर जी, प्रसिद्ध अभिनेता एवं निर्देशक श्री प्रवीण जी तरडे और पुणे पुस्तक महोत्सव के सहयोगी उपस्थित थे।
