It is a celebration of the confluence of India’s ancient civilizations, cultures and traditions.” He said, “You will remember that Kashi Tamil Sangamam was also organized a few months ago here on the land of Kashi.

The nectar of nationalism is coming out of the confluence of diversities which will keep India energetic till the infinite future.
