But this land has another important aspect. This land is a confluence of spirituality and sustainability. Sustainability is vital for economy but also vital for healthy life.

I, therefore, am always delighted to share my thoughts with you and thoughts I am sharing on a very important aspect. At Sirsi, a place of academic excellence that serves our environment. aur Environment vo aspect hai life kaa, jo dhrtii pr hr praannii ko chuutaa hai / Environment ko jb cunautii dii jaatii hai, to vo cunautii sirph maanv jaati ko nhiiN hai, is pRthvii pr jo bhii hai uske lie hai / aaj ke din bhut bddii ksauttii hai ki hm pryaavrnn kaa sNrkssnn kreN, bcaav kreN / jo bhaarii sNktt aa rhaa hai usko hm kaise paar kreN /

shii khaa gyaa thaa when we look at our planet there is everything for everyones needs but certainly not for greed. islie yhaaN maiN yh khtaa huuN ki dhrtii maaN ne jo hmko diyaa hai, we must resolve to use those resources frugally, optimally and minimally only to satisfy our basic requirements.
Forest bhut mhtvpuurnn haiN / Forest are our lungs kisii bhii desh meN forest tthiik rhegaa, the people will enjoy good health because forests are lungs. usii triike se maiN khtaa aayaa huuN baar-baar, agriculture is our lifeline. pr forest kii aavshyktaa kyoN hai? They regulate climate, they buffer disasters. Forests support livelihoods, especially for the poor and marginalized. We must pledge to protect forests, and we must contribute in every manner we can because climate change is a global challenge, a global menace. Situation is alarmingly cliff-hanging.
dhrtii maaN ke alaavaa hmaare paas rhne kii aur koii vyvsthaa nhiiN hai / aisii pristhiti meN -- let us face this existential challenge in togetherness. aur iske lie ek baat yaad rkhnaa bhut jruurii hai / The planet is not exclusive to human race, the planet belongs to all living beings. We must recognise this writing on the wall.
jb mujhe jaankaarii milii ki is sNsthaa ke alumni srkaarii sevaa meN aur any triikoN se bhii bhut bddaa yogdaan kr rhe haiN / I appealed to them to converge into a very powerful alumni association.
