Kavinder emphasized that the people of the Jammu region are eternally grateful to Maharaja Hari Singh for his significant contribution to the nation.

He praised the BJP's commitment to preserving the rich cultural and historical heritage of the region, as exemplified by these commemorations dedicated to Maharaja Hari Singh.
The event concluded with a pledge to continue honoring the legacy of Maharaja Hari Singh and to work tirelessly for the betterment of Jammu and Kashmir, in line with his vision. |
