Prime Minister Narendra Modi has written a heartfelt letter to the people of India on the eve of Deepavali, extending his greetings and sharing a message of optimism and unity. In his letter, the Prime Minister described Deepavali as not only a festival of light but also a festival of renewed faith in India’s collective destiny. He urged citizens to take inspiration from the triumph of truth and righteousness, which lie at the core of the festival’s meaning.

The Prime Minister’s message, written in his characteristic warm and reflective tone, expressed deep gratitude towards the citizens, particularly those serving in far-flung areas including soldiers, police personnel, and health workers. He emphasised that their commitment and sacrifice ensure that the lamps of safety, progress, and peace continue to burn brightly across the country.

Emphasis on Collective Progress and Responsibility

In his letter, PM Modi highlighted that Deepavali symbolises victory over despair and darkness, and therefore every individual should take it as an opportunity to reaffirm their dedication towards the nation’s progress. He wrote that just as each diya brightens its surroundings, every citizen too must contribute to the light of India’s development story.

The Prime Minister reminded people that Deepavali is not merely a festival of personal celebration but of community well-being and shared growth. He appealed for thoughtful celebrations that are mindful of environmental sustainability and social harmony. He urged citizens to support small businesses and local artisans during the festive season, noting that this spirit of vocal for localstrengthens the country’s economy at its roots.

Praises for Cultural Heritage and Indian Values

PM Modi’s letter also reflected on India’s enduring cultural and spiritual heritage. He wrote that India’s festivals mirror the timeless values of compassion, perseverance, and collective joy that bind the nation together. Recalling how Deepavali has been celebrated for centuries in diverse ways across regions—from earthen lamps in homes to grand temple processions—he said, “Our traditions may differ, but the light we kindle is the same.”

The Prime Minister underlined the importance of preserving these traditions in modern times, asserting that the strength of India’s democracy and society lies in its ability to connect the past with the future. He urged young people to take pride in their cultural identity and to view festivals as a source of inspiration for service and innovation.

A Call for Harmony and Optimism

The letter concluded with an appeal to maintain unity and social harmony. PM Modi said that in times when the world faces uncertainty and challenges, India’s festivals remind everyone of the country’s enduring capacity to hope, rebuild, and rise together. He asked citizens to devote prayers for the welfare of others and to light diyas in memory of those who continue to serve the nation selflessly.

Extending his personal wishes, the Prime Minister expressed confidence that this Deepavali would bring peace, prosperity, and happiness to every household. He wrote that the light of Deepavali must not remain confined to homes but should illuminate every heart with goodwill and determination.

As the country readies itself for the grand celebration, the Prime Minister’s Deepavali message resonates as both a greeting and a guiding reflection—urging India to blend tradition with purpose and light the path towards a brighter future.
