CM Sai attended the Garba hosted by Shri Kachchh Kadva Patidar Samaj at Bhanpuri, the \u201cJhankaro 2025\u201d organised by Shri Gujarati Lohana Mahajan Samaj at Aashirwad Bhawan, the \u201cRangeelo Raas 2025\u201d at the Indoor Stadium, and the \u201cRaas Garba Utsav\u201d at Omaya Park. At these venues, members of the community welcomed the Chief Minister warmly with the traditional Kachchh turban and tilak. The lively beats of Garba and the colourful ambience were further energised by the Chief Minister\u2019s presence, which infused excitement among the crowd.<\/p>\n
Extending greetings of Sharadiya Navratri to the people, CM Sai said that Navratri is a festival that enhances enthusiasm, joy and goodwill. \u201cThis festival strengthens social harmony and spreads energy among the masses. In Chhattisgarh, the Goddess is worshipped in many forms, and with the blessings of this divine power, the state continues to move forward on the path of progress,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
Chief Minister Shri Sai noted that Maa Danteshwari is revered in Dantewada, Maa Angarmoti and Bilaimata in Dhamtari, Maa Mahamaya in Sarguja and Ratanpur, and Maa Bamleshwari in Dongargarh. \u201cThese Shakti Peeths not only reinforce the spiritual faith of the people but also give Chhattisgarh a distinct identity as part of its cultural heritage,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
Highlighting recent reforms, CM Sai said, \u201cOn the very first day of Navratri, our Hon\u2019ble Prime Minister Narendra Modi implemented GST reforms, giving new momentum to the country\u2019s economic activities. These reforms will not only make trade smoother but also provide direct benefits to consumers. Today, through the \u2018Bachat Utsav\u2019, citizens are witnessing significant savings in their pockets, which is infusing new energy into the economy.\u201d<\/p>\n
He further appealed to people to prefer indigenous goods while shopping. \u201cSwadeshi not only strengthens the country\u2019s economy but also creates opportunities for local production and self-employment. Adopting swadeshi is a major step towards achieving the vision of Atmanirbhar Bharat, and this will become the foundation of India\u2019s prosperity,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
The event was also attended by Raipur MP Brijmohan Agrawal, MLAs Motilal Sahu, Purandar Mishra, Sunil Soni, Anuj Sharma, former MLA Devjibhai Patel, local public representatives along with senior members of Shri Kachchh Kadva Patidar Samaj, Shri Gujarati Lohana Mahajan Samaj and a large number of distinguished citizens.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
