According to an official press release, attending a commemoration event on Sant Kabir at Bishnah here, the LG paid homage to him and highlighted his profound societal impact.

“Kabir was an enlightened spiritual master, who had stressed on the idea of the co-existence of faiths — Sarva Dharma Sambhava — and dedicated his life to spreading the message of unity, brotherhood and social harmony,” he said.

Sinha, in his address, called upon people to follow Sant Kabir’s teachings and show equal respect for all sections of the society and all faiths.

He observed that Sant Kabir’s profound message and divine verses, reflecting on various social issues and challenges, are as relevant today as ever.

“India has been home for centuries to seekers from different religions and this spirit of brotherhood, social and religious diversities have become our strength,” said Sinha.

“We must learn from the wisdom of Sant Kabir to preserve and nurture our ancient values, ‘sanskar’ of our ancient living civilization and our priceless knowledge system. We must reach out to every citizen in J&K and inculcate and reinforce these values in the new generation,” he added.

The LG also shared Jammu and Kashmir administration’s efforts, “under the guidance of Prime Minister Narendra Modi”, for providing equal opportunities and dignified life to all citizens.

Responding to the demands, Sinha assured appropriate measures to declare Sant Kabir Jayanti as a gazetted holiday.

“It is the Government of India’s commitment to ensure reservation in promotion,” he said, also assuring necessary intervention in meeting the demand for establishing a community hall for Sant Kabir Samaj.

The LG also spoke on the significant role of Holistic Agriculture Development Program (HADP) in bringing a new agriculture revolution in Jammu and Kashmir and transforming the lives of 13 lakh farming families, with dedicated focus on marginal and small farmers.

Sinha said “the past 11 years, under Modi’s leadership, have marked a period of unprecedented change and growth for Indian agriculture, driven by a holistic vision to make farming more profitable, sustainable and globally competitive.”

Dr. Rajeev Bhagat, Member of Legislative Assembly, Bishnah; Prof Gharu Ram Bhagat, Member of Legislative Assembly, Suchetgarh; prominent citizens, community leaders, members of various organisations, and people from all walks of life were present on the occasion.
