Chandigarh, March 29:
Punjab Revenue Minister Bram Shanker Jimpa today extended his warm greetings to the people of state on the auspicious occasion of Ram Navami, the birthday of Maryada Pushotam Lord Rama.
In his message, the Minister said that Lord Ram is the embodiment of tolerance, justice and high moral values, who showed us the path of ideal and virtuous living to carve out a prosperous and harmonious society. “Lord Rama’s philosophy and teachings inspire all of us to rededicate ourselves to the cause of a just society” added Jimpa.
Exhorting the people to follow the teachings of Lord Rama in the true spirit, the Revenue Minister said that these were still relevant in the present materialistic society. He said that such pious occasions not only promote a sense of communal harmony, brotherhood and mutual understanding amongst the people but also showers bountiful joy and prosperity on them.
Jimpa called upon the people to celebrate this auspicious day collectively rising above the parochial considerations of caste, colour, creed and religion.
