Dehradun, Oct 20 Uttarakhand Chief Minister Pushkar Singh Dhami participated in the Dussehra festival organised at Parade Ground here on Tuesday.
On this occasion, he extended his greetings and best wishes to the people of the state and prayed for everyone’s happiness, peace, prosperity, and well-being.
The chief minister said that the festival of Vijayadashami reminds us of the power of truth and the significance of righteousness.
“Dussehra is not merely about the burning of Ravan’s effigy; it is also an occasion for introspection and self-purification. We must resolve to eliminate the ego, anger, greed, and negative tendencies that reside within us. The participation of every individual in society is essential to eradicate social evils such as corruption, injustice, substance abuse and violence against women,” said Dhami.
He said that the state government is committed to maintaining peace, security, and law and order in Uttarakhand, while simultaneously safeguarding its cultural heritage, religious traditions and social harmony.
