Jaipur, November 9: Former Chief Minister and BJP National Vice President Vasundhara Raje celebrated Diwali with her family by lighting sparklers and decorating her prayer room with diyas. On Sunday night at 11:41 PM, she shared four photos on social media, extending Diwali greetings to everyone. In her post, she tagged her son, Dushyant Singh, who is the MP from Jhalawar-Baran.

Earlier that Sunday morning, Raje congratulated the people of Rajasthan twice within an hour, once in Hindi and once in Rajasthani, totaling three festive messages on Diwali.

Family Celebration in Front of Ganesh Idol

The first photo shows Raje in her courtyard, standing next to a white marble Ganesh idol illuminated in green light, surrounded by marigold flower pots. Dressed in a purple-pink saree, she is joined by three family members, two of whom are holding lit sparklers.

Prayer Room with Diyas and Holy Book

The remaining three photos are from her prayer room. One captures Raje seated in front of a large image of Radha-Krishna and various deities, holding a plate decorated with marigold flowers, with an earthen lamp glowing in the center. A man in a maroon kurta assists her by holding the plate.

In another image, she is seen reading a holy book near the prayer altar, with several diyas lit on the plate in front of her. The third photo shows her lighting the same diyas placed in a brass plate.

Morning Greetings in Hindi and Rajasthani

On Sunday morning at 8:05 AM, Raje shared a 15-second video greeting in Hindi. She wished for the blessings of Goddess Lakshmi to bring happiness and prosperity to every home, and for the light of diyas to fill people’s lives with new energy and hope.

About 55 minutes later, at 9 AM, she conveyed the same message in Rajasthani, starting with “Ghanni Ghanni Ram-Ram” to the people of the state. She expressed her hope that the bright light of diyas would bring “navo ujas” (new brightness) to everyone’s lives and make each day auspicious.

Wishes for Advani and Condolences for Jaswant Yadav

On Diwali, Raje also wished senior BJP leader Lal Krishna Advani a happy 99th birthday. She praised Advani as a towering figure in Indian politics, noting his lifelong dedication to the nation and organizational growth.

Earlier, she expressed deep sorrow over the passing of former minister and Bahrod MLA Dr. Jaswant Yadav, describing his death as tragic. Raje acknowledged Yadav’s commitment to public service throughout his long political and social career, highlighting his significant contributions to the region’s development.
