Erode CN College principal Dr S Manoharan released 10 new Tamil books, published by New
Century Book House (NCBH) at Erode Book Festival on Friday.
He lauded the NCBH for publishing only good quality books after ascertaining the facts in it.
In his speech, the Peravai president lawyer T Stalin Gunasekaran recalled that a few years back the NCBH released 125 books.

But, it released 15 books at Tirupur and 10 at Erode book festival. He appealed to public to maintain a book shelf in all houses to make our posterity a knowlegeable one.
He also appealed to the school and college teachers to introduce good books to students and promote reading habit among them to help them become good citizens of the country.
