Our rich cultural heritage reveals the reflection of the past that tends to meet the present. Cultural heritage is an expression of the way of life and passed on from one generation to another. Cultural heritage provides a sense of identity. Our cultural values and natural heritage are both irreplaceable resources of life. We must maintain our culture, its values and its natural traditions. I believe our culture is the very essence of our lives. My earnest thanks to Sardar Shamsher Singh Sandhu fro inspiring us to take the initiative, serve the humanity and to flourish the Punjabi culture.
