The message of the spirit of ‘one earth, one family, one future’ went to the whole world from Kashi to the tunes of G20 countries.

Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath was present at the ‘Sur Vasudha’ cultural program organized at Pandit Deendayal Upadhyay Hastkala Sankul, Bada Lalpur.

Moreover, UP CM honoured the composer of Sur Vasudha with ‘angavastram’ and garland. Cultural programs were presented in the program emphasizing the concept of ‘Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam’, the ancient tradition of India. In order to promote sustainable development, the message of environmental protection was given by organizing a program on the concept of ‘One Earth, One Family, One Future’.
