Those who are weak should be helped," he said.He said that some people in countries like America and China are plotting against our goodwill."We must be cautious of this. We must end the distrust towards each other. We must share each other's sorrows and pains," he said, according to the release.Representatives from various social groups, including Sikh, Buddhist and Jain communities, as well as Ramakrishna Mission, ISKCON, Jai Gurudev, Shiv Shanti Ashram, Art of Living, Sant Nirankari Ashram, Sant Kripal Ashram, Kabir Mission, Goraksha Peeth, Arya Samaj, Sant Ravidas Peeth, Divyanand Ashram, Brahma Vidya Niketan, etc., participated in the program.
