Earlier in the day, Prime Minister Modi extended his Diwali wishes to the people of the country, expressing his hope for their “excellent health.”
“Wishing everyone a Happy Diwali! May this special festival bring joy, prosperity and wonderful health to everyone’s lives,” he said.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi has consistently upheld a tradition of commemorating Diwali with the soldiers stationed at the nation’s borders. Since assuming office in 2014, he has consistently prioritized spending the festival of lights with the armed forces, making it a practice to travel to distant locations to convey his appreciation for their sacrifices. In the preceding year, he observed the festival with soldiers in Kargil, Jammu and Kashmir.
