Kerala Governor Arif Mohammad Khan on Sunday said that Indian society has never accepted rulers in power “but thought leaders such as rishis and munis” as their ideal.
Mr. Khan said that “unity in diversity” in India was not born out of necessity but as “our civilisational and cultural heritage”.
“...even during the Vedic period, the diversity of languages and religious faiths and expression of devotion existed in India. Later, it was asserted,” Mr. Khan said.
