Ayodhya: The rich cultural heritage and traditional arts of Uttarakhand are not only getting a new identity, but future generations are also getting inspired and connecting with it. Monday was a day of pride for the people of Uttarakhand, when the divine idol of Lord Shri Ramlal seated in Ayodhya was adorned in Shubhavastram decorated with the world famous Aipan art of Devbhoomi.
This Shubhavastram was not only a symbol of the traditional art and dedication of Uttarakhand, but it also added a new glorious chapter to the cultural prosperity of the state on the national stage.
These Shubhavastras were prepared by the skilled craftsmen of Uttarakhand with the inspiration of Chief Minister Pushkar Singh Dhami, under the leadership of CM Dhami, the new identity being given to the culture and art of the state, and the Chief Minister himself presented it to the Shri Ram temple by delivering it to Ayodhya.
This Shubhavastram not only shows the Aipan art of the state, but it also has a wonderful coordination of the devotion contained in it and the unique craftsmanship of the labor seekers, which made the cultural image of Uttarakhand more brilliant.
Under the dynamic leadership of Chief Minister Dhami, many concrete steps are also being taken towards the promotion of folk art, music, dance and crafts of the state. Chief Minister Dhami is not only encouraging the local handicrafts and artisans of the state, but is also inspiring the youth of the state to connect with their cultural roots and cherish it.
It is the result of CM Dhami’s efforts that the echo of Uttarakhand’s traditional art and culture is now being heard on international platforms as well. The folk arts of Uttarakhand are being prominently presented in various international events, giving the state global recognition and respect. Dhami believes that the cultural heritage of the state should be preserved and promoted with modern resources and techniques so that this invaluable heritage remains safe for generations to come.
Chief Minister Dhami firmly believes that the overall development of the state is possible only when its cultural roots are strong. Therefore, under his leadership, the youth are being connected to culture through digital means and social media. In collaboration with cultural institutions and arts organisations, youth are being trained in traditional arts so that they can feel proud of their culture and take it forward.
