Models United Nations is the best way to understand the activities of the United Nations. India's opinion is now given due importance on any issue in the United Nations, said Indore Mayor Pushyamitra Bhargava while addressing the inaugural ceremony of the three-day Prestige Model United Nations organized by Prestige Institute of Management and Research here on Friday.
Bhargav said there are many programmes to understand the UN, but the Kashmir issue is the most important to understand the United Nations. Describing the abrogation of Article 370 from Kashmir as a significant event, he said that the biggest change that came after its abrogation was the freedom to hoist the tricolor anywhere in Kashmir, which could not have been imagined before 2019.
Social worker Mala Singh Thakur said that India not only talks about `Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam’ but also practices it. While every country considers other countries as business, India considers every country as a family, she said, asking students to work towards achieving the 17 Sustainable Development Goals as set by the United Nations. Senior advocate Pankaj Wadhavani also expressed his views on this occasion.
