Addressing an event in Gorakhpur Thursday morning, Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath said a nation’s identity is rooted in its culture, traditions, and the legacy of its great personalities.

“These elements are deeply interlinked. When culture is weakened, unity and national identity also begin to erode. Culture is shaped by national values and strengthened by historic, revolutionary moments. These values are embraced by people across India through various festivals, which foster unity by dissolving differences and upholding the spirit of ‘Ek Bharat, Shreshtha Bharat’,” the CM said.
