“BSF's 'Pedal for Ek Bharat, Shreshtha Bharat' rally passing through numerous towns and villages along the way inspired the young generation and reminded them about the vision of our founding fathers and their ideals of selfless service. It is a bounden duty of every citizen of J&K to pursue that path and build Jammu Kashmir of their dreams,” the Lieutenant Governor said.

“From Kashmir to Kanyakumari, India is one. The heart and soul of 140 crore Indians are united and we are a big family of 140 crore members. This spirit and bond of family must strengthen our unity. We must inculcate the spirit of ‘Nation First’ and every citizen must prioritize nation-building over personal interests,” the Lieutenant Governor said.
The Lieutenant Governor called upon the young generation and people from all sections of society to self-introspect and take a pledge to dedicate themselves to the goal of Viksit Jammu Kashmir and Viksit Bharat.
The Lieutenant Governor also urged the society to be cautious and vigilant against the divisive elements who are trying to disrupt peace and social harmony. He further called upon the enlightened citizens and civil society members to participate in Har Ghar Tiranga Abhiyan, and encourage every family to be part of this Maha Yagya.
On the occasion, the Lieutenant Governor also paid tribute to the civilians who were martyred in the Pakistan-sponsored terror attack in Pahalgam.
“Through Operation Mahadev and Operation Sindoor, we have avenged Pakistan’s brutality. If the terrorist country Pakistan sheds the blood of our citizens, then it will have to pay a very heavy price,” he said.
