MP Chief Minister Dr. Mohan Yadav said that the life and legacy of Samrat Vikramaditya, the icon of exemplary governance, continue to inspire society. Speaking at the staging of the three-day grand theatrical presentation ‘Samrat Vikramaditya’ in Varanasi (Kashi) on Friday, CM Dr. Yadav said that it is particularly significant to host this performance in Kashi, the karmabhoomi of Prime Minister Narendra Modi. The ceremony was inaugurated jointly by CM Mohan Yadav and Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath.
CM Dr. Yadav said that the grand theatrical presentation serves as a medium to introduce the younger generation to the ideals of Samrat Vikramaditya, including his patriotism, bravery, sense of justice, affection for his subjects, and the revival of knowledge and scientific traditions. The play has also been staged earlier in New Delhi.
CM stated that talented individuals from various professions, such as engineers, doctors, lawyers and others, perform different roles in the play.

In this way, the theatrical presentation not only entertains audiences but also brings India’s glorious history to life.
Dr. Yadav further said that three pairs of brothers are particularly renowned in Indian tradition: Lord Shri Rama and Lakshmana, Lord Shri Krishna and Balarama and Samrat Vikramaditya and Raja Bhartrihari.
