Shimla: Governor Kavinder Gupta today called upon society to follow the ideals of Maharaja Agrasen by linking economic prosperity with social service, compassion and collective responsibility.
Addressing the Maharaja Agrasen Jayanti celebrations organised by the Agarwal Sabha, Solan, the Governor said that the true strength of society lies not only in economic growth but also in caring for others, helping one another and working for public welfare.
Highlighting Maharaja Agrasen’s principle of ‘Ek Eent, Ek Rupaya,’ the Governor said it teaches the importance of collective support, where everyone contributes according to their ability. He said this principle is still relevant today, whether it is helping needy students with education, supporting poor families with medical expenses, creating skill development and employment opportunities for youth, or assisting disadvantaged families.
Emphasising the importance of youth, Kavinder Gupta said young people should be encouraged to become responsible, self-reliant and caring citizens. He urged them to become job creators rather than only job seekers and to promote entrepreneurship, innovation and solutions to social problems.
The Governor expressed confidence that the Agarwal Sabha would continue to contribute to the social and economic development of Solan and Himachal Pradesh. He also extended his greetings to all office-bearers, members, women and youth associated with the organisation.
