CM Baghel administered oath, congratulations and greatest needs to the newly elected workplace bearers of Bharat Scout Guides Chhattisgarh State Council

Chief Minister Bhupesh Baghel today participated in the virtual program of swearing-in of the newly elected office bearers of the Bharat Scouts and Guides Chhattisgarh State Council. He administered the oath to the office bearers through video conferencing from his residence office. The Chief Minister congratulated and congratulated all the newly elected office bearers for successfully discharging their responsibilities.

The Chief Minister told the office-bearers that you have taken the responsibility of taking forward such a global movement in Chhattisgarh, which was started by Lord Wedden Powell in Britain in 1907. Scouting is a movement of character building of the individual, which inculcates human values ​​in children. One of the important principles of Scouting is the principle that a Scout is a friend of all. Every Scout is the brother of another Scout. In this way, this principle links Scouting to universal brotherhood. Humility, loyalty and reliability are the qualities of every Scout. This movement teaches a person to love nature. It teaches that this world is full of animals and birds. It is our responsibility to preserve them.

The Chief Minister said that Scouting teaches to be frugal. Purity of thought, word and deed is the first condition of Scouting. A Scout is always ready with body and mind to serve others. According to the tradition of Scouting, every Scout puts a knot on his scarp and vows not to untie the knot until he has completed the service.

Scouting is a movement of world-society building, which India is also taking forward. This movement in India had started even before independence. The ‘Bharat Scouts and Guides’ in independent India was established on 7 November 1950 by Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru, Maulana Abul Kalam Azad and Mangal Das Pakwasa.

School Education Minister Dr. Premsai Singh Tekam, MLA and National Vice President of Bharat Scouts and Guides Satyanarayan Sharma and Parliamentary Secretary and State Chief Commissioner of Bharat Scouts and Guides State Council Vinod Seven Lal Chandrakar as the President of Chhattisgarh State Council in the swearing-in program. He also congratulated and extended best wishes to the newly elected office bearers.
