New Delhi: A ‘Laxman Rekha‘ will be drawn over the politics of appeasement practised in Delhi so far, and ‘Ram Rajya‘ will be established through the politics of contentment, ensuring the well-being and prosperity of all, chief minister Rekha Gupta said.
Attending a Ram Navami procession in west Delhi’s Khayala area, Gupta said ‘saffron’ is a symbol of the colour of the soil and the well-being of people. “Why not paint Delhi saffron so that every person prospers and the city marches forward on the path of progress,” she said, adding that the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) govt in the capital will realise the concept of ‘Ram Rajya’ that people visualised.
“A ‘Laxman Rekha’ (symbolising a line not to be crossed) will be drawn over the politics of ‘tushtikaran’ (appeasement) that was being done in Delhi, and now, there will be politics of ‘santushtikaran’ (contentment),” she said.
She said Ram Navami is a significant occasion. Last year, the Ram temple was unveiled in Ayodhya, and PM Modi fulfilled the wishes of millions of people, she said.
Later, Gupta attended the 150th Foundation Day of Arya Samaj, held at the Talkatora Indoor Stadium. On this occasion, she said the contribution of Arya Samaj in the service of humanity and the advancement of society is unparalleled. Describing Arya Samaj as an ‘institution of personality development’, she said, it fosters personality development, instilling values to thousands, enabling them to serve the nation and society with dignity.
Gupta also underscored Arya Samaj’s pivotal role in promoting education and safety for girls. She stated that the ideology and efforts of Arya Samaj led to the foundation of national campaigns such as ‘Beti Bachao, Beti Padhao’.
