Varanasi (Uttar Pradesh) [India], December 16 (ANI): The Kashi Tamil Sangamam is a great effort by Prime Minister Narendra Modi to rejuvenate India’s cultural unity, Home Minister Amit Shah said on Friday and noted that the event has been a bridge to bring the two regions closer.
“By organizing the Kashi Tamil Sangamam, Prime Minister Narendra Modi has made an effort to revive India’s cultural unity in the year of Amrit Mahotsav of Independence. PM Modi has tried to connect different cultures after centuries through Kashi Tamil Sangamam. It is from here that India’s cultural renaissance is about to begin,” he said.
The Home Minister said India is made up of diverse languages, cultures, grammar, art, and civilizations.
Amit Shah said India is a geo-cultural country “and the basis of our unity is our cultures”. Prime Minister Narendra Modi has connected these cultures after centuries through Kashi Tamil Sangamam, he said.
“I want to convey a message today that Trust and love have a similarity as both cannot be achieved forcibly. Kashi Tamil Sangamam has created a new environment of trust and love between both regions,” he said.
He said the event has acted as a bridge to bring the two culturally rich regions together.
PM Modi inaugurated the month-long festival on November 19, 2022.
Alongside various events in the fields of education, art and culture, literature and sports, the convention featured exhibitions of art, films, handlooms and handicrafts.
