Recently Lieutenant Governor Manoj Sinha inaugurated Indira Gandhi National Centre for Arts (IGNCA) Regional Centre at Jammu.
He congratulated IGNCA, artists, writers, researchers, art lovers, innovators and students on the occasion.
He expressed gratitude to the Hon’ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi, and Shri Ram Bahadur Rai, President IGNCA, for dedicating IGNCA’s Regional Centre to Jammu.
“The folk tradition of Jammu has been the source of values and ideals that have sustained the society through the ages and I believe the IGNCA’s regional centre will create a framework for nurturing the virtues of culture for enhancing quality of life.
This centre will foster the promotion and preservation of our rich art and cultural heritage and help the growth of time-tested traditional wisdom and knowledge,” the Lieutenant Governor said.
The Lieutenant Governor called upon the intelligentsia to work with organisations like IGNCA for promotion of J&K’s rich artistic heritage and also preserving and propagating Vedic oral tradition.
“Our civilisational heritage represents a culture that is all-embracing and based on the concept of ‘Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam’, the world as one family. This Mantra continues to be of great significance to the world even today,” the Lieutenant Governor said.
