Vice President M. Venkaiah Naidu has emphasized the importance of teaching India’s heritage, culture, and traditions to children.

Mr Naidu urged parents and teachers to attach utmost importance to teaching children about India’s heritage, culture, and traditions.

He was interacting with children who represented India at Brave Kids Festival 2019 in Poland and Ukraine in New Delhi today.

Mr Naidu also wanted schools to inculcate the spirit of volunteerism among children by encouraging them to take part in voluntary activities such as NSS, NCC and Scouts, and Guides.

Observing that participating in events such as the Brave Kids International Festival will enable the youngsters to understand the importance of friendship and respect for each other’s culture, Mr Naidu expressed the hope that taking part in such events would contribute towards a peaceful and sustainable world. Mr Naidu urged schools to promote sports and yoga to enable students to stay fit.
