Ek Bharat Shrestha Bharat
Ek Bharat Shreshtha Bharat is a government initiative that aims to promote cultural unity and mutual understanding among the people of the various states and union territories of India. The program was launched on 31 October 2015 on the occasion of the birth anniversary of Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel.
Under this initiative, every year a state or union territory is paired with another state or union territory. Through this pairing, there is an exchange of various cultural, educational, and economic activities, such as language learning, cultural programs, tourism, and sports.
