Ahmedabad: Gujarat University in Ahmedabad hosted the ‘Bharat Cool’ event on Thursday, which was officially opened by Gujarat Chief Minister Bhupendra Patel.
Speaking sometimes, CM Patel said that these activities play a major role in rescuing the nation’s youth from the mindset of slavery by showcasing the state’s and the nation’s artistic and cultural heritage.
The Chief Minister urged on everyone to join forces in living the ‘Amritkal’ as a ‘duty time’ in the genuine meaning of the word in order to fulfill Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s vision of a developed India.
Gujarat Media Club’s ‘Bharat Cool’ program began with Chief Minister Bhupendra Patel discussing ‘Bhav’ and stating that it has a unique place in our culture. ‘Value’ is transforming the individual and the personality. Triveni Sangam of Bhav-Tal-Raag would be held here, he noted.
The Chief Minister went on to say that PM Modi has referred to “Amritkaal” as a “duty period” in the genuine sense in order to make India a developed country by 2047. Only then will we recognize the current era as a duty period, and only then will the idea of “developed India” become a reality.
Chief Minister Bhupendra Patel spoke on the importance of preserving our heritage and culture. According to the Chief Minister, these kinds of events will introduce our culture, art, and history to the next generation.
The Chief Minister made it quite evident that teaching the next generation the fundamental principles of our timeless culture is crucial. In the same way that a towering tree requires strong, deep roots, the Chief Minister extended the role of young power to make cultural and historical preservation a collaborative effort.
The Chief Minister praised the work of the press media and said that because the media’s “value” is to benefit society, we should take into account their legitimate comments for the greater welfare of the people. Because public welfare is the ultimate goal of both the government and the media.
The Chief Minister urged everyone to pledge to preserve our culture and legacy in order to fulfill the Prime Minister’s goal of “Viksit Bharat.”
The organisers of the ‘Bharat Cool’ program were commended by Harsh Sanghvi, Minister of Home Affairs, Youth Services and Cultural Activities Department, for providing the younger generation with a comprehensive awareness of India, Indian culture, and Indian ideals. He went on to say that the state government is eager to promote Indian music, art, and culture and urged as many young people as possible to attend the four days of events hosted by “Bharat Cool” that would cover a range of religious, social, and nation-building subjects.
Sanghvi stated the belief that the establishment of Ek Bharat Shrestha Bharat was necessary in order to educate the public about the traditions and culture of Gujarat and the other Indian states, as well as our younger generation.
Nimsir Kapur, the president of the Gujarat Media Club, described the organization’s operations and the “Bharat Cool” campaign in detail during this event, describing it as a way to promote Indian culture.
The Chief Minister and the Minister of State for Home also paid a visit to the photojournalists’ exhibition and the Shiv Katha that was held there on this particular occasion.
It should be noted that Bharatkool Mohotsav will take place over four days and will feature Bhava, Raga, and Taal programs.
