Defence Minister Rajnath Singh joined Ministers Anil Vij and Krishan Kumar Bedi at the opening. They offered the final oblations in the Gita Yajna along with Gita scholar Swami Gyananand Maharaj, MP Naveen Jindal, and former minister Subhash Sudha. Their presence strengthened the spiritual enthusiasm around the event.

At Purushottampura Bagh, guests received a warm and traditional welcome. Folk artists from several states performed in colourful attire. As a result, the entire area turned into a vibrant cultural arena. Leaders such as Bharat Bhushan Bharti, Dhuman Singh, Tejinder Singh Goldy, and Upender Singhal greeted visitors with devotion.

Rajnath Singh said that Kurukshetra stands as a rare blend of spirituality, culture, and wisdom. He also reminded people that Lord Krishna delivered the message of Karma Yoga on this very land. According to him, this message continues to guide humanity today. Anil Vij added that the Gita provides both philosophical insight and practical direction, so people across the world respect it deeply.

The festival has expanded steadily over the past nine years. Moreover, it reached countries like Mauritius, London, Canada, Australia, and Sri Lanka. This year, Madhya Pradesh joined as the partner state, which further enriches the cultural exchange.
