New Delhi (PTI): Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Thursday greeted the people of Maharashtra and Goa on the occasion of Gudi Padwa and said it symbolises the triumph of righteousness over adversity.

In identical letters to the people of the two western states, Modi said that as India continues its journey towards progress and self-reliance, the essence of Gudi Padwa becomes even more relevant.

"On the auspicious occasion of Gudi Padwa, I extend my heartfelt greetings to you and your family. This sacred festival, marking the beginning of the New Year, is a time of renewed hope and the promise of new beginnings," he said.

The prime minister said the 'gudi' (a symbolic flag hoisted at the entrance of households) stands as a symbol of victory, prosperity and optimism.

Gudi Padwa holds deep cultural and historical significance, he said.

"It symbolises the triumph of righteousness over adversity. It is also associated with the onset of spring, the season of rejuvenation," he added.

"Today, as India continues its journey towards progress and self-reliance, the essence of Gudi Padwa becomes even more relevant," Modi said.

The values Gudi Padwa embodies are the very values that guide everyone.

"In a rapidly changing world, these traditions anchor us, reminding us of our roots and what we stand for.

"Let us carry forward the spirit of Gudi Padwa throughout the year with renewed determination and a sense of purpose. May this New Year bring happiness, good health and prosperity to all," the PM said.
