On 15 August 2011, over 1,400 kishores and kishoris from Atladra attended the special Independence Day gathering at BAPS Shri Swaminarayan Mandir, Atladra. The youngsters were guided on the ‘Art of Living’ through an inspiring speech by Brahmadarshan Sami and motivating words from Bhagyasetu Swami.
The youths learnt that true and lasting independence is gained only by leading a spiritually based, morally upright life.
