The Governor, while speaking in the Vaidik Sammelan and 133rd Annual Function of Arya Girls Senior Secondary School, said that Vedas were rich sources of knowledge and wisdom and youth should be aware of them. He added that wisdom of Vedas was acknowledged across the world. He stressed upon the need to make young generation aware about the glorious traditions and cultural heritage of our country so that they could develop a sense of pride and patriotism.
The Governor said that youth were assets of the country and added that that they should channelise their energies towards constructive nation building activities. He advised youth to refrain from drugs which were not only destructive for their own health but also for the future of the country.
