Mysore/Mysuru: Dr. M.P. Varsha, cultural advisor to Vice-President of Nepal Government, underscored the invaluable role of books in shaping individuals’ lives at different stages. He highlighted how books instil life values in childhood, guide youths away from negative paths, offer solutions in married life and teach older individuals to remain active.
Speaking at the World Earth Day and World Book Day celebrations organised by the Lions Club of Mysore Ambassador at a private hotel on Ring Road recently, Dr. Varsha underscored the significance of books as companions. He expressed concern over the declining trend of readership and urged people to prioritise reading, whether online or offline mediums.
