On behalf of the PEPSU Government I consider it a great privilege to ex- tend to you a most cordial welcome. It must have caused you some inconveniencc to travel all the way to Patiala capital o our tiny State of PEPSU. In particular I have been feeling quite concerned aboui our friends from the South, who, unfor tunately for us, are not accustomed to extremely dry and cold weather of the North I hope that your stay here will be a pleasan• one as we are very proud to have beer afforded the opportunity of arranging fo this session of the Soil Conservation SocietJ of India, and consider it a source of privileg to be in a position to witness the deliberation: of such a representative and distinguishec gathering in Patiala. Such occasions bring to our mind vastness and greatness of our country, and it is always such a source of joy and prid( to see that so many different cultures, lan• guages and traditions are uniting under flag, and trying to serve one common cause — our motherland. Never before in all history has one man paved the way of the united •rogress of such a multitude of humanity as our Nation's Father the Mahatma; and never in history has a leader held such a mass of humanity together as our beloved leader Pandit Nehru.
