Jaipur, November 9: Chief Minister Bhajanlal Sharma celebrated Diwali night at his residence in Jaipur, lighting lamps with his family. He expressed his hope that the light of the lamps would dispel darkness and despair from the lives of every resident in the state, bringing happiness, peace, good health, and prosperity to all homes. The Chief Minister extended his Diwali greetings to all citizens.

He began his message with a prayer: “Shubham karoti kalyanam, arogyaṁ dhan-sampada. Shatru-buddhi-vinashaya, deepa-jyotiḥ namo’stute.” This translates to honoring the light of the lamp, which brings auspiciousness and prosperity, promotes health, and dispels evil thoughts.

Lamps Placed Amid Rangoli

The courtyard of the Chief Minister’s residence featured a large rangoli design, with the words “Shubh Deepawali” crafted in the center, surrounded by earthen lamps arranged in circular patterns. Dressed in a white kurta-pajama and a printed dupatta, the Chief Minister bent down to place the lamps on the rangoli.

Chief Minister’s Residence Adorned with Marigold Garlands

The entire building of the Chief Minister’s residence was illuminated with pink lights, and marigold garlands hung from the eaves to the main entrance. Statues of elephants flanking the entrance were also decorated with flower garlands, while rose petals lined the steps where lamps were lit. Photos captured the Chief Minister and his family standing at the main entrance, holding lit lamps.
