Home Minister Amit Shah also extended his greetings and said: “Best wishes to all on ‘Vijayadashami’. No matter how dense the darkness of unrighteousness is, the victory of the light of righteousness based on truth is eternal. Symbolic of the victory of virtue over sin, ‘Vijayadashami’ is a festival that inspires and teaches us to always follow the path of wisdom and truth. May Lord Shri Ram bless everyone. Jai Shri Ram!”
समस्त देशवासियों को ‘विजयादशमी’ की हार्दिक शुभकामनाएं।
अधर्म का अंधकार चाहे कितना भी घना क्यों न हो, सत्य के आधार पर धर्म के उजाले की विजय शाश्वत है। पाप पर पुण्य की विजय का प्रतीक ‘विजयादशमी’ हमें सदैव विवेक और सत्य के मार्ग पर चलने की प्रेरणा व शिक्षा देने वाला पर्व है।

The festival of Dussehra will be celebrated across the country today, with effigies of Ravana being burned to mark the victory of good over evil.
The Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) will hold its annual Vijaydashmi Utsav in Nagpur today. The customary Dussehra gathering will be addressed by RSS chief Mohan Bhagwat at the Reshimbaug ground – an integral part of the organisation’s event calendar, a release said.
