New Delhi: The President,
Mr Ram Nath Kovind, will inaugurate the International Gita Mahotsav at
Kurukshetra on November 25, 2017. He will also participate in Gita Yajna and
Gita Poojan ceremonies at Brahma Sarovar. The Mahotsav which will conclude on
December 3, 2017, will have Mauritius as a partner country and Uttar Pradesh as
a partner state.
Disclosing this at a press conference in here today, the Chief
Minister, Mr Manohar Lal, said the President would also inaugurate the
International Seminar on Gita on Kurukshetra University campus the same day.
About 25-30 lakh people are likely to participate in the Mahotsav this year as
against the arrival of 20 lakh last year. Replying to a question, he said that
people from 35 countries participated in Gita Mahotsav last year at Kurukshetra
and this year we are expecting more than these.
The valedictory session of the three-day seminar would be held
at Brahma Sarovar as 'Sant Sammelan' on November 27 in which many renowned
saints and seers from all over the world would participate. The gracious
presence of saints and seers in Kurukshetra on this occasion would be a
befitting tribute to the spiritual text of Gita.
