He invoked the spiritual meaning of Diwali as a celebration of light over darkness and a moment of national unity and resurgence.
People across the country celebrate Diwali, one of India’s most cherished festivals, with immense enthusiasm.
People light earthen lamps and candles, perform prayers to Goddess Lakshmi, and gather with loved ones to mark the occasion with joy and gratitude.
Yogi’s Diwali Message
Sharing his wishes on social media, the Chief Minister said, “Heartfelt congratulations and best wishes to all of you on the grand festival of Diwali, the sacred symbol of the eternal victory of truth, the eternal righteousness and positivity! The festival of lights is not merely a ritual of lighting lamps, but a beacon of hope in the soul, a pulse of harmony in society, and a resolve for national resurgence.”
He continued, “May the grace of Lord Shri Ram and Mother Janaki illuminate not only our homes but also our hearts, and may the lamp of faith, enthusiasm and zeal be kindled in everyone’s life.”
सत्य, सनातन, सदाचार और सकारात्मकता की शाश्वत विजय के पावन प्रतीक महापर्व दीपावली की आप सभी को हार्दिक बधाई एवं शुभकामनाएं!
दीपोत्सव केवल दीप जलाने का अनुष्ठान नहीं, बल्कि आत्मा में आशा का आलोक, समाज में समरसता का स्पंदन और राष्ट्र में नवजागरण का संकल्प है।
