Army units deployed in different parts of the State have built a glorious record of interacting with local civil society to create a sense of pride and glory about the history of our nation. Be it the mountainous and snow-bound hilly areas of Tithwal, Gurez, Rajouri and Poonch or be it the plains in Samba and Kathua, army units have extended hand of friendship and good will to the local civilian population in order to build bridges of trust and confidence. Under this impulse, one well-known scheme is title Operation Sadhbhavna. This is the scheme floated by the Northern Command with the clear intention of not allowing the minutest impression of alienation of local civilian population to prevail. At its own expenses, the army takes groups of school going children on tours of prominent historical cities and centres of the country to make them aware that they belong to a great country with great past. Historical places like Taj Mahal, Sikri, Red Fort, Dargah at Jaipur or industrial marvels in other parts of the country will open the vision of our young students in regard to our history past and present.
Under Operation Sadhbhavana, the General Officer Commanding, Counter Insurgency Force (Delta) flagged off at Batote an educational-cum-motivational tour for the students from far-flung areas of Banihal, Ramban, Batote and Kud. The tour comprising 23 students and two teachers has been organized for the duration of ten days from July 20 to 29, 2013 to Ajmer, Bhilware, Jaipur, Agra and Fatehpur Sikri. The tour will help students know the development of the country in various fields as also its glorious past readable from its monuments and historical places. Such tours for young boys and girls are highly educative. It widens their vision and inspires in them nationalism from very childhood. They are groomed to become valuable citizens of the country and make their positive contribution towards the development of the country as a whole. The state is beholden to our army jawans and officers for visionary schemes like Operation Sadhbhavna. This is how the fabric of national integrity can be strengthened. We accord hearty welcome to such schemes of great utility to the country.
