The Governor said if every citizen of the nation dedicates one week for the nation, India will regain its past glory.

Stating that if medical students from various medical colleges get the opportunity to serve the rural and tribal people, their world of experience will be broadened, the Governor said that he will ask the Maharashtra University of Health Sciences to cooperate with the Sevankur project.
