J&K | To mark the 153rd birth anniversary of Pujya Bapu, Department of School Education held finale of month-long celebrations in schools across the J&K UT. Shanti Yatra started from Anantnag & Jammu on 7th September culminated today at SKICC: LG Manoj Sinha

When the country was in the state of gloom in 1947, Bapu saw a ray of hope in Kashmir. We are determined to build the J&K of Bapu’s dreams empowering every section of the society without discrimination.

Violence has no place in a civilized society. Truth and Non-Violence- were the true powerful instrument of Bapu. I urge people to imbibe the timeless teachings of Bapu and contribute to the nation-building. Misguided youth must shun the path of violence and join the mainstream.

Let us ensure that Gandhiji’s thoughts and wisdom of one nation one people enriches our diversity and strengthen our plural culture. We must follow his ideas to achieve the dream of Gram Swaraj and modern education rooted in our ancient values.

It should be the responsibility of the citizens to strive to translate Bapu’s ideals into action to create a society which is progressive, prosperous and contributes in building a strong and Aatm-Nirbhar Bharat: LG Sinha
