Congress leader Priyanka Gandhi extends wishes on Vijayadashmi
Congress MP Priyanka Gandhi extended her heartfelt greetings on the occasion of Vijayadashami, one of the most significant Hindu festivals in India. Writing on X, she said,
“Heartfelt greetings on the grand festival of Vijayadashami, celebrating the victory of good over evil, humility over ego, justice over injustice, and truth over falsehood. I wish happiness, peace, prosperity, and harmony for all my fellow citizens.”
This year, Dussehra, also known as Vijayadashami, is being celebrated across the country on October 2. The festival marks the triumph of good over evil and is observed in diverse ways throughout India. It commemorates Lord Rama’s victory over the demon king Ravana, symbolising the triumph of truth and righteousness over arrogance and evil.
A popular tradition during the festival is the effigy burning of Ravana, Meghnad, and Kumbhkaran, which signifies the victory of good faith over evil.
Earlier on Thursday, Prime Minister Narendra Modi also extended his wishes, calling the festival a symbol of the victory of good and truth over evil and untruth. Posting on social media platform X, PM Modi wrote,
“Vijayadashami is a symbol of the victory of good and truth over evil and untruth. My wish is that on this sacred occasion, everyone receives the inspiration to continuously progress on the path of courage, wisdom, and devotion. My warmest greetings of Vijayadashami to my family members across the country.”
Along with the Prime Minister, Uttarakhand Chief Minister Pushkar Singh Dhami also conveyed his greetings to the people on this auspicious occasion.
As reported by news agency ANI, in his message on the eve of Vijayadashami, CM Dhami highlighted that the festival symbolizes the victory of righteousness over unrighteousness, good over evil, and truth over falsehood. He stated that the festival inspires everyone to renounce the evils within and walk on the path of virtue.
Emphasizing the importance of living free from ego, the Chief Minister urged people to follow the path of truth and work together to strengthen social harmony in the state and the nation. He added that this sacred festival reminds us that those who stand with the truth always emerge victorious.
