The expedition titled ‘Pattu Vandi’ was flagged off from LIC corner at Mananchira by Calicut Press Club president M. Firoz Khan. The vehicle passed through 12 locations playing noted songs of Rafi and launched a signature campaign raising the demand. Campaign chairman T.P.M. Hashir Ali was present. Writer M.T. Vasudevan Nair had put the first signature for the campaign on Sunday.
