Assam governor, CM greet people on Kali Puja, Diwali

Assam's Governor Lakshman Prasad Acharya and Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma extended their greetings to the public on the auspicious occasions of Kali Puja and Diwali, conveying their best wishes for happiness, good health, and prosperity. Both leaders emphasized the significance of the festivals in overcoming evil and bringing about progress, harmony, and unity.

Acharya highlighted the Goddess Kali's blessings in his message, while Sarma described Diwali as a celebration of light, hope, and renewal. They both urged citizens to celebrate responsibly and contribute to a cleaner and greener Assam.

On Saturday, the Governor joined Sashastra Seema Bal personnel at their Frontier Headquarters in Sonapur for Diwali celebrations. He expressed appreciation for the security personnel's dedication to the nation, even during festive times, when they often have to be away from their families. Sarma, through a social media post, encouraged people to let the light of renewed resolve for progress and prosperity illuminate their lives, drawing inspiration from the lamps lit to welcome Lord Shri Ram's return to Ayodhya.
