Speaking at the event, Chief Minister Dr. Sarma thanked Ashok Sarma and others for organizing the bike rally and advised rally participants to increase awareness of the negative effects of environmental degradation and the behaviors that people should encourage to conserve nature while traveling.
He added that the issue of global warming has grown significantly in light of the declining forest cover. He urged the populace to plant additional saplings and take action to ensure their survival in light of this.
The Chief Minister also asked the Cycle Rally participants to spread the word of independence and aid in instilling a sense of patriotism in the younger generation.
The Chief Minister also urged the populace to adopt a resolution to make society more environmentally friendly on the occasion of Azadi Ka Amrit Mahotsav.
