PM Modi, Amit Shah Extend Jharkhand Statehood Day Greetings; Praise State’s Tribal Heritage

Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Union Home Minister Amit Shah extended greetings to the people of Jharkhand on Sunday on the occasion of the state’s Statehood Day.

Both leaders highlighted Jharkhand’s rich tribal heritage, cultural diversity and natural wealth while expressing confidence in its development and prosperity.

In a post on X, PM Modi described Jharkhand as a unique blend of tribal pride, cultural diversity and natural resources. He said the state’s dense forests, scenic waterfalls and historic sites give it a distinctive identity.

Recalling the legacy of tribal freedom fighter Birsa Munda, the Prime Minister said stories of his bravery and sacrifice continue to inspire the traditions of the land.

PM Modi also highlighted Jharkhand’s potential in sectors such as minerals, energy, handicrafts and tourism. He expressed confidence that the determination and capabilities of the state’s people would take it to new heights of development. He also wished residents happiness, prosperity and well-being.

Amit Shah also extended his greetings to Jharkhand residents through a post on X. He described the state as a land of natural splendour, glorious history and rich tribal culture.

Shah recalled the contributions of Birsa Munda and Sido-Kanhu, praising their courage and sacrifice. He wished Jharkhand greater prosperity and self-reliance and prayed to Baba Baidyanath for its progress.

Jharkhand became India’s 28th state on November 15, 2000, after separating from Bihar. The date also marks Birsa Munda’s birth anniversary, observed as Janjatiya Gaurav Diwas to honour tribal freedom fighters.

Born in 1875, Birsa Munda led the Ulgulan movement against British rule and exploitation. PM Modi also paid tribute to him, remembering his courage and contribution to tribal rights.
