The grand 'Bua, Behan, Beti Sneh Milan Samaroh' held in Royal village of Khandela region in Sikar district has emerged as a unique and historic example of social harmony, mutual brotherhood, and utmost respect for daughters. Around 500 daughters, sisters, and aunts belonging to various castes, communities, and sections of the village participated enthusiastically in this inspiring ceremony. Upon returning to their parental village, the villagers and family members accorded them a traditional and grand welcome. As daughters living in different parts of the country and society after marriage returned to their ancestral village after several years, a festive atmosphere was witnessed across the entire Royal village, filling everyone's hearts with immense joy.
The responsibility of managing this grand ceremony held at Royal Garh was jointly shouldered by prominent philanthropist Meghraj Singh Royal, his respected family, and dedicated villagers. The primary highlight of this gathering was that instead of inviting members of any single caste or family, daughters from all strata of society were invited. Aunts, sisters, daughters, and mothers of the village interacted openly with each other and shared their childhood memories and family anecdotes, while a beautiful and emotional sight was witnessed where childhood friends met and relations spanning multiple generations gathered under a single roof. The younger generation also got a golden opportunity to understand and experience the old family relations and rich rural culture closely through this event.
Addressing the gathering, key speaker and organizer Meghraj Singh Royal clearly stated that the main objective of this grand program was to strongly reconnect daughters with their parental roots, eradicate the poison of casteism completely from society, and further strengthen social harmony. He emphasized that every single daughter of the village deserves utmost respect, regardless of her caste, community, class, or background. Launching a scathing attack on the social evils of casteism, he remarked that casteism is like ocean water, no matter how much sweetness or sugar one mixes into it, it can never become drinkable. Meghraj Singh appealed to all villagers to rise above the narrow politics of casteism and unite on real and pressing issues like education, unemployment, and grassroots development.
Sharing his perspective further, he stated that instead of wasting the precious energy and time of society in caste-based disputes, it should be channeled towards providing good education to children, creating new employment opportunities for the youth, and ensuring comprehensive development of the village. He laid special emphasis on the fact that positive change in society can't be brought about by money alone. It requires a genuine spirit of service, unwavering family support, blessings of the entire village, and active participation of the villagers. Any major social endeavor can only succeed when all members of the village stand shoulder to shoulder, considering it their personal responsibility.
Meghraj Singh Royal warmly praised the enthusiastic participation of a large number of daughters, sisters, and mothers present at the ceremony, stating that their massive presence and blessings truly justified the event. He suggested that such inspiring events should be held continuously so that people of the village and society remain connected and strive together for collective development. Discussing the changing dynamics of modern education, technology, and employment, he noted that instead of relying entirely on government jobs or reservations in the future, it's essential to prepare children in the direction of modern education, technical skills, and self-reliance. Mentioning the various community welfare initiatives undertaken by the United Global Peace Foundation, he explained that the coming generation must be equipped with skills matching the requirements of the changing job market.
Brigadier Jitendra Singh, while addressing the audience, stated that no major social event can succeed solely on the basis of financial resources; rather, it requires a spirit of service, family dedication, invaluable cooperation of villagers, and active involvement of village representatives. Throughout this Sneh Milan ceremony, along with traditional honoring of daughters, vital messages regarding social cooperation, modern education, new employment opportunities, and comprehensive village development were conveyed. The active participation of nearly 500 daughters, sisters, and aunts gave the event a broad social and cultural dimension. Through this successful gathering, a clear message emerged that the true identity of any village isn't shaped by a single caste or class, but by the collective efforts of all families and citizens associated with it. Only through social harmony, true spirit of service, and mutual cooperation can our villages and society progress toward a brighter future.
