Speaking to a gathering of legal professionals, students, and dignitaries, the Governor highlighted that wherever there is dharma, there will be victory, echoing the Supreme Court's motto: Yato Dharmastato Jayah.

"Dharma is not religion. It is a way of life, the dos and don'ts, what I should do, and how I should do it right," Governor Arlekar said.

Emphasising its relevance in today's legal and social landscape, he remarked, "We may be on the wrong side of a matter, but if we uphold dharma, we remain on the path to justice."
