Chennai:Ā Tamilnadu Governor Banwarilal Purohit today said it is necessary for the youth of the nation to be aware of the sacrifices that people like Mahakavi Bharathi have made to win us freedom from foreign rule.
“A nation of 125 crore people has enormous potential. Imagine the impact that the people of our nation will have if this large population moves forward as one unified consolidated mass with the single-minded goal of making the nation great,” he said, when he presided over the Mahakavi Subramania Bharathi Festival Desh Bakthi Festival here.
“It is very well possible in our lifetime. What is required is commitment to the cause, adherence to disciplined training to attain oneās own full potential and the acquisition of the feeling that we are all Indians, without distinction of caste creed, language or religion,” he said.
The Governor added: “At this important juncture in history, it is my earnest call that more and more citizens should come forward to serve the nation with a feeling of selflessness and national pride. May more and more of this tribe increase.”
