VED Council organised a visit for its members and families to the pride of Nagpur Sanskriti Kendra, organized by Bharatiya Vidya Bhavan Sankritik Kendra as an integral part of its tourism and heritage thrust areas for the upcoming year on Sunday.
Shri Rajendra Purohit, Chairman of BVMSK himself facilitated the tour for the members led by President Rina Sinha and revealed a captivating cultural treasure trove. This immersive experience takes visitors on a journey through India’s rich heritage. The centerpiece is the awe-inspiring “Shri Ramayana Darshan,” a collection of 122 hand-painted artworks depicting significant episodes from the Ramayana.
The intricate details and captivating emotions of each scene, accompanied by written explanations in Hindi, English, and Marathi, offer a profound understanding of this epic tale. Ascending to the second floor, VED members enter the “Bharat Mata Sadanam,” a hall specifically designed to ignite the spirit of patriotism and spirituality. This magnificent space, adorned with exquisite artwork from floor to ceiling, showcases the artistic brilliance of India. A larger-than-life bronze statue of Bharat Mata, the Mother India, serves as a central attraction. Patriotism is further instilled through a collection of 115 paintings featuring freedom fighters from 1856 to 1947.
A particularly noteworthy section highlights the bravery of India’s Param Vir Chakra 21 awardees, honoring their sacrifices through captivating portraits. VED strongly believes the pride of Nagpur Sanskriti Kendra is a must-visit for every citizen of Nagpur and the Vidarbha region. It serves as the perfect destination to introduce guests from other cities to the profound depth and dignity of Indian cultural heritage.
