Rajnath urges J-K students to spread love and peace

New Delhi[India], Feb.18 (ANI): Union Home Minister Rajnath Singh on Sunday interacted with a group of school children from Jammu and Kashmir in New Delhi and wished them a prosperous future.

The Home Minister met the children under the Youth Exchange Programme "Watan Ko Jano" 2017-18.

Interacting with the students, he said, "Loving each other is the biggest thing in this world. Who can do this, a person with small thinking or big thinking? Only a person with big mind can do this. Every human being should love each other. Some people don't understand this message of God."

During the session, a student also requested Singh for a picture with her.

The Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA) has been organising programme "Watan Ko Jano" to give exposure to the youth and children of Jammu and Kashmir about the cultural and socio-economic development taking place in other parts of the country.
