Govt empowered rural economy: J&K LG

Bengaluru, Dec 17: Lieutenant Governor Manoj Sinha Sunday said that the government had empowered the rural economy.

An official spokesman in a statement issued here said that attending a function organised by Mahamana Malaviya Mission at Bengaluru, the LG said, “Rural economy has been transformed, marginalised section of society has been empowered, and modern education, skilling,
and upskilling are creating employment and entrepreneurship opportunities.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi has fulfilled the dream of Mahamana. Make in India and AatmaNirbhar Bharat Abhiyan has unlocked India’s manufacturing potential.”

He commended the efforts of the Mahamana Malaviya Mission for promoting the
values and ideals of the great visionary Pandit Madan Mohan Malaviya.

“Mahamana is the light on our path. His life-long campaigns had awakened
the conscience of the entire nation and made a profound impact on society, economy
and education,” Sinha said.

He highlighted the significant contribution of Pandit Madan Mohan Malaviya in reviving India's business, industrial education and country’s rich civilizational heritage and laying the foun-
dation for future India.

“Through his works, Mahamana generated a new sense of pride in the country's history, present and future potential,” the LG said. “During the freedom struggle, Mahamana taught us the doctrine of self-reliance and used education as an instrument to build a large pool of excellent human
resources, scientific and technological excellence and inspired the local industries
to occupy their rightful place in the global economy.”

He said that Mahamana was truly a miracle man, who very well knew that modern
education could transform India's youth into a great power to contribute to society
and to achieve self-growth.

“As a chief architect of education and industrial revolution, Mahamana also gave the youth dreams and self-confidence so they could rise to their fullest potential,” Sinha said.

He also shared the key endeavours of the government, under the leadership of PM Modi, to realise the vision of Aatma Nirbhar and a developed India.

The LG urged the people, especially the youth to rededicate themselves to the ideas of Pandit Madan Mohan Malaviya and contribute to nation-building.

Yaduveer Krishnadatta Chamaraja Wadiyar; Padma Shri Kota Harinarayana; members of Mahamana Malaviya Mission and prominent personalities from diverse fields were also present on the occasion.
