Udupi, Jan 3: P B Acharya, Governor of Nagaland, has hailed Vishwesha Tirtha Swami of Paryaya Pejawar Mutt and Dharmasthala Dharmadhakari D Veerendra Heggade as the icons of the country.

He was speaking as the chief guest at a function to felicitate Heggade on his completing 50 years as Dharmadhakari of Sri Kshetra Dharmasthala at Rajangana here. The Rashtra Ratna Prashasti was conferred on Dr Heggade.

The governor also urged the two religious leaders to start their projects in the North-East,” Mr. Acharya said. “Strengthening the eight States of North-East India was the need of the hour. People from the mainland should make an effort to visit these eight States and establish their projects there,” he added.

“The North-East was abundant in natural resources. There were nearly 300 insurgent groups operating in the North-East. These States also had international borders. They either bordered China, Mynamar or Bangladesh. The insurgents did not feel that they were part of the country. Hence, it was up to the people of the mainland to reach out to them,” he said.

In his felicitation speech, the Pejawar seer said that there was no field of welfare which Dr Heggade had not touched. He had made his contribution to several fields, including healthcare, education, Ayurveda, Yoga, and also promoting self-employment. “I hope he will get the Bharat Ratna,” he said.

In his speech, Dr. Heggade said that it was the activities of the Pejawar seer which had inspired him to take up welfare schemes.
