The Lieutenant Governor extended heartfelt gratitude to Hon'ble Minister of Uttar Pradesh, Shri Manoj Kumar Pandey, for organising this extraordinary spiritual gathering, which has infused new vitality among the people.

“A time has come when we shall guide the world and saints and enlightened members of society will play a vital role and bear great responsibility in this mission. The power of unity and its spirit will once again make India a developed nation, and I am fully confident that we shall regain our ancient glory,” the Lieutenant Governor said.
