Jammu, July 7

The French Club in association with Team Jammu on Sunday felicitated entrepreneurs and local personalities.

Former minister and BJP leader Sham Lal Sharma, who was chief guest on the occasion, said the local youth had enormous talent, but they required exposure across the country.

“It is our duty to make efforts to give exposure to the talent of these youth across the country, besides we all should work towards promoting our culture and Dogri language,” said Sham Lal.

“Most of the people feel shy of using the Dogri language in their day-to-day living. We should make efforts to promote our culture and converse as far as possible with each other in Dogri,” he said.

Zorawar Singh Jamwal, chairman, Team Jammu, who was the guest of honour said young entrepreneurs had not only sustained themselves independently, but had also created employment opportunities for others.

Sham Lal congratulated entrepreneurs Pankhuri Aggarwal (PanKhoj), Sakshi Beri (Caliberi), Urvashi Kapoor (Crafty Fever), Satvik Badyal (Bodytech Fitness Club), Pranav Gupta (Vab Constructions), Aashima Mahajan (Double Decker), Priya Raina (Cuts N Curves Gym & Spa), Vijay Singh (VJ, Dance Academy) for starting new ventures.

The programme was held under the supervision of Arun Sharma, president and founder of the French Club. The sponsors of the event were Team Jammu, 39 Bakers, Chocologic, Navya Collection by Sakshi, Wellnesszone Headmasters Salon & Spa, Sajawat & Chocolatt, Rohini Printers and Jammu Newsline 24X7.
