Highlighting the socialist approach of Maharaja, Pavitar Singh said that our state was blessed to have the leadership of Hari Singh as he brought many social changes during his regime. “Maharaja was a visionary and his religion was justice to all which he practiced during his rule.

Chibber thanked President of the Rajput Sabha for presenting the Photo of Maharaja and reminding the role of Hari Singh in the formation of J&K Bank with the help of businessmen and other prominent citizens of erstwhile J&K state during his regime. |
