“Unity is our greatest strength. The youth must unite the society with determination. I envision every hand working like a skilled sculptor to create a beautiful, victorious, and prosperous India. I want to see a strong sense of responsibility, steadfastness, and determination in every youth towards nation-building,” the Lieutenant Governor concluded.
Emphasizing the need for cultural ideals and values to guide the new political and economic system, the Lieutenant Governor also urged for a holistic government approach to achieve socio-economic goals and build a brighter tomorrow for the country.
