CM Pushkar Dhami flags off 'Niti Xtreme Ultra Countdown Run' in Dehradun
Dehradun, May 23
Uttarakhand CM Pushkar Singh Dhami flagged off 'Niti Xtreme Ultra Countdown Run', organised by Uttarakhand Tourism Development Board, on Saturday.
The 'Niti Xtreme Ultra Countdown Run' was flagged off from the Uttarakhand CM Camp Office premises gate.
Dhami said the 'Niti Xtreme Ultra Run' is more than just an event, describing it as a movement to inspire energy, opportunity and confidence, while praising Uttarakhand's youth for their dedication and patriotism.
"This 'Niti Xtreme Ultra Run' is not just an event but a campaign to awaken new energy, opportunity and belief. You all being here early in the morning proves that the youth of Uttarakhand are filled with courage and commitment towards the country," he said.
Singh Dhami said the 'Niti Xtreme Ultra Run' is a test of mental strength and determination as much as physical endurance, praising participants for their courage and commitment to taking Uttarakhand forward.
"This run is not merely a test of your physical prowess; it serves to bolster your willpower, patience, and self-confidence. Running in a remote and arduous terrain like the Niti Valley is not a feat within everyone's capability. Therefore, it demands inner self-assurance--a spirit as indomitable as the Himalayas, and the courage to embrace challenges head-on. I take pride in seeing you all standing before me today--a group of spirited and resolute young individuals who aspire to propel this 'Devbhumi' forward in every sphere," Dhami said while addressing the participants.
Dhami hailed the participants as ambassadors of Uttarakhand's courage, tourism and culture, and congratulated them for their achievement.
"In terms of courage, tourism, and culture, you are, in every sense, the brand ambassadors of this 'Devbhumi'. It would be no exaggeration to address each one of you as a brand ambassador. I extend my heartfelt congratulations to you all on this achievement," he said.

Superb! Uttarakhand ki natural beauty aur adventure sports ka combination kamaal ka hai. CM sahab ka youth ko brand ambassadors bolna sahi hai, par development bhi equally important hai. Roads aur basic facilities pe bhi focus hona chahiye.
Kya baat hai! Niti Valley mein ultra run ka idea zabardast hai. Isse local tourism ko faayda hoga aur logon ko Uttarakhand ke remote areas ke baare mein pata chalega. Bas weather conditions ka dhyan rakhna hoga. 💪
Ye sab events theek hai, lekin Uttarakhand mein youth unemployment ka kya? Jobs aur education pe bhi dhyan dena chahiye. Ek do events se kuch nahi hoga. Constructive criticism hai, bura mat maniyega CM ji.
Niti Valley ka terrain really challenging hai. Mene khud trek kiya hai wahan, toh ultra run participants ka bahut respect hai. CM ka isko 'movement' bolna thoda over hai, but positive initiative hai overall.
Uttarakhand ke liye tourism ka itna promotion dekhna achha lagta hai. Par aise events ko regular basis pe karna chahiye, sirf photo op ke liye nahi. Local artists aur vendors ko bhi involve karein toh aur bhi accha hoga.
