Amaravati: Andhra Pradesh Governor Biswa Bhusan Harichandan lauded the efforts of the Bharat Scouts and Guides for providing relief to the migrant workers during the Covid lockdown and helping them to reach their destinations safely.
“Occasions (lockdown) like these provide an opportunity to Bharat Scouts and Guides to highlight their activities and create awareness among the general public to enlist their support for the growth of the organization,” said Harichandan.
As the chief patron of AP Association of Bharat Scouts and Guides, the Governor attended its 70th foundation day celebrations at the Durbar Hall in the Raj Bhavan.
