The BJP, which is moving towards promoting Hindutva, is organizing related programs at various places. BJP including CM Dhami is participating in such programs. On the occasion of Ram Navami today, Chief Minister Pushkar Singh Dhami virtually addressed the devotees present at the Akhand Ramayana Paath organized at Pankhu’s Maa Kokila Kotgadi temple in Pithoragarh from the Chief Minister’s residence. While wishing the people of the state a Happy Ram Navami, the Chief Minister prayed to Lord Shri Ram for the happiness and prosperity of all the people of Uttarakhand.
Addressing the program, Chief Minister Dhami said that Ramayana is not an ordinary text. Rather it is a mirror of our life. It is a guide of dignity, devotion, sacrifice and religion. From the life of Lord Shri Ram, we get to learn how religion and dignity are followed even in adverse circumstances. The purity of Mother Sita, the spirit of service of Laxman, the sacrifice of Bharat, the devotion of Hanuman ji, all these ideals inspire us to have good conduct.
The Chief Minister said that the events of Akhand Paath of holy religious texts like Ramayana purify our soul as well as make the environment sattvik and connect the society. The Chief Minister said that it is a matter of great pride and joy for all of us that after a long wait of 500 years, Lord Shri Ram Lalla is celebrating the festival of Ram Navami for the second time by sitting in his grand temple in Ayodhya.
CM Dhami said that we are all fortunate that we have got such a Pradhan Sevak in the form of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, whose unwavering resolve and tireless efforts have made our dream of a grand temple of Lord Shri Ram in Ayodhya come true. Urging all the people of the state, the Chief Minister said that we should adopt the ideals of Lord Shri Ram in ourselves and pledge to live with honesty, love, service and goodwill in the society.
