The Governor in his message said that the Solung Festival is the embodiment of Adi way of socio-cultural and religious life.

This cultural mosaic has to be maintained, preserved and propagated at all costs while keeping intact our unity in diversity. I believe this year’s Solung celebrations would prove a major catalyst towards achieving this goal”.
