On the eve of Vijayadashami, Lieutenant Governor Shri Manoj Sinha extended warm greetings to the people, highlighting the significance of the festival. His message resonates with the core values that Vijayadashami embodies: the victory of good over evil and righteousness over unrighteousness.
In his message, Shri Sinha stated,“On the joyous occasion of Vijayadashami, I extend my warm greetings and good wishes to all for their happiness, well-being, and prosperity.” He called upon citizens to embrace the festival’s essence as a beacon of hope and unity.
Vijayadashami, also known as Dussehra, marks the end of the nine-day festival of Navratri and celebrates the triumph of Lord Rama over the demon king Ravana. This storied festival instills a sense of victory and communal pride.
Shri Sinha urged everyone to allow this sacred occasion to inspire them toward collective efforts for national unity and progress. He emphasized the need to foster harmony, brotherhood, and oneness among all citizens, explaining, “May this sacred festival inspire us to work for unity, peace, and progress of the country and strengthen our spirit of harmony.”
The Lieutenant Governor’s message strikingly resonates with the spirit of togetherness that this festival aims to promote. With the ongoing festivities, communities across the region engage in various cultural events, showcasing traditions that uphold the ethos of righteousness.
As citizens celebrate Vijayadashami, they are reminded of its rich cultural heritage and the importance of upholding good values in their daily lives. This year, the occasion holds even more significance as communities continue to reconnect and celebrate the essence of togetherness after two years of pandemic restrictions.
In reflection of the Lieutenant Governor’s message and the spirit of the festival, citizens are encouraged to embrace the teachings of Vijayadashami and commit to contributing positively to society.
