He also called upon the citizens to take a collective pledge for an "Ujjawal Jammu Kashmir” and “Ujjawal Bharat," The Lieutenant Governor honoured the NoKs of martyrs, and family members of Late Dr. Raj Kumar Thapa, and civilians who lost their lives due to unprovoked firing by Pakistan during Operation Sindoor.
