Saini was speaking at a state-level function on Maharishi Kashyap Jayanti in Chandigarh. He called Kashyap a great philanthropist who guided society through the Kashyap Samhita and Smriti Granth. The chief minister highlighted the historical role of the Kashyap community and named figures such as King Nishad and Bhakt Prahlad.
