These New Year festivals celebrated in various ways in different parts of our country with renewed hopes and enthusiasm, symbolize our diversity and pluralistic tradition. These festivals also denote respect towards our farmers’ tireless hard work.
On this occasion, let us take a pledge to bring peace, prosperity, and gaiety for our fellow countrymen and spread the message of unity and fraternity for the progress of the nation. May all remain hale and hearty and move forward unitedly with a new zeal for the progress of the country”.
