Happy Diwali 2021: PM Modi, Amit Shah, Rahul Gandhi extend wishes as nation celebrates festival

Prime Minister Narendra Modi extended greetings to the citizens on the occasion of the Diwali festival on Thursday. “It is my wish that the festival brings happiness, prosperity and good fortunes in everyone’s life,” he said. One of the most popular Hindu festivals, Diwali is associated with the day when Lord Ram is believed to have returned to Ayodhya with his wife Sita and brother Lakshman after defeating Ravana, and is seen as a celebration of the victory of good over evil. People celebrate the festival by decorating their houses, exchanging gifts, and offering prayers in order to commemorate the “victory of light over darkness, good over evil, and knowledge over ignorance.” The prime minister will be celebrating Diwali with Indian Army soldiers in the forward area of the Nowshera sector in Jammu and Kashmir’s Rajouri today. Every year, Modi celebrates Diwali with soldiers since he took the office in 2014.

दीपावली के पावन अवसर पर देशवासियों को हार्दिक शुभकामनाएं। मेरी कामना है कि यह प्रकाश पर्व आप सभी के जीवन में सुख, संपन्नता और सौभाग्य लेकर आए।

Wishing everyone a very Happy Diwali.

— Narendra Modi (@narendramodi) November 4, 2021

President Ram Nath Kovind urged citizens to celebrate the festival in a more safe way and to pledge to protect the environment.

दीपावली के शुभ अवसर पर मैं सभी देशवासियों को बधाई और शुभकामनाएं देता हूं। दीपावली बुराई पर अच्‍छाई की और अंधकार पर प्रकाश की विजय का पर्व है। आइए, हम सब मिलकर, इस त्‍योहार को स्‍वच्‍छ और सुरक्षित तरीके से मनाएं और पर्यावरण की रक्षा में योगदान करने का संकल्‍प लें।

— President of India (@rashtrapatibhvn) November 4, 2021
