PM’s letter to citizens highlights success of fight against Naxalism, Operation Sindoor

New Delhi, Oct 21: Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Tuesday penned a letter to the citizens of the country on Deepavali, highlighting the successes of Operation Sindoor and the fight against Naxalism and asserting that Bharat has emerged as a symbol of stability at a time when the world is beset with crises.
The prime minister listed the decision to lower Goods and Services Tax rates among the historic achievements of his government and said that citizens are saving thousands of crores of rupees during the ‘GST Bachat Utsav’.
He also urged citizens to adopt swadeshi to promote the spirit of ‘Ek Bharat, Shreshtha Bharat’, to respect all languages, prioritise health and embrace yoga.
“All these efforts will rapidly take us towards a Viksit Bharat,” Modi said in his letter, which he wrote a day after he celebrated Diwali with Navy personnel onboard the indigenously built aircraft carrier INS Vikrant.
“I extend my heartfelt greetings to all of you on the auspicious occasion of Deepavali, a festival filled with energy and enthusiasm. This is the second Deepavali after the grand construction of the Ram temple in Ayodhya,” he said.
“Lord Shri Ram teaches us to uphold righteousness and also gives us the courage to fight injustice. We have seen a living example of this a few months ago during Operation Sindoor. During Operation Sindoor, Bharat not only upheld righteousness but also avenged injustice,” the PM said. (PTI)
