Highlighting the religious significance of the day, dedicated to Maa Shailputri, the Prime Minister further added, “Today, during Navratri, is a special day for the worship and rituals of Mother Shailputri. My wish is that, with the Mother’s affection and blessings, everyone’s life may be filled with good fortune and good health.”
