Extending financial assistance to those embarking on the Kailash Mansarovar and Sindhu Darshan pilgrimages, Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Akhilesh Yadav said religious travellers promote harmony and brotherhood in the society.
"Guru Nanak travelled for 24 years. Buddhists travelled a lot. The yatris bring important messages which benefit the society," Yadav said.
He said such pilgrims promote mutual understanding, harmony and brotherhood in the society.
The people of Uttar Pradesh have given 'Samajwadis' a chance to work and the state government has been continuously making efforts for their progress and prosperity.
