“Ganga Maiya has chosen me to serve the people,” Vibhu remarked. I will never disappoint her. It is only through her blessings that I have reached this point in my life today. My parents and teachers have also contributed to my accomplishment. I’d also like to thank DK Singh, the former DM of my district, who initiated the Ganga Aarti programme in 2019.
Vibhu Upadhyay believes that such initiatives made it possible for youths like him to connect with Sanatan Dharma. The Hindu youngsters began to like doing aarti at the ghat, which drew them closer to their culture. Vibhu Upadhyay also complimented the traditional attire worn during the Ganga Aarti. He stated that Ganga Aarti kept his mind focused and calm. He used to devote one hour of his day to Aarti.
Speaking to ANI, Vibhu said that he wanted to continue his family tradition of becoming doctors. He started preparing for this when he was in 9th standard.
“Maybe that’s why it took me less time to clear the NEET exam. I got the blessings of Ganga Maa that I am going to become an MBBS doctor,” Vibhu said.
Taking to Twitter, Uttar Pradesh CM Yogi Adityanath’s office lauded Vibhu for his disciplined and cultured lifestyle and wished him for a bright future.
