And in that our identity, culture, and civilization are of paramount importance for which the role of education and the people behind it can in no way be undermined. In fact, autonomy, peace, and prosperity can be achieved through a lifestyle ingrained in traditional values on which the pillars of our culture and civilization in Bharat rest.” UNI KU SHK 2149
