JAMMU, Nov 9: Minister for Labour, Planning and Development Ajay Kumar Sadhotra today inaugurated a two-day exhibition of art at Kala Kendra. The art exhibition includes works of Satish Gupta and subjects encompass topics ranging from aesthetic beauty, nature, divinity, wildlife, still-life etc.
Interacting with the artists and visitors on the occasion, Mr. Sadhotra hoped that artists will continue to quench the aesthetic and spiritual thirst of people by expressing realistic depiction of nature through their paintings.
