PM Narendra Modi on Thursday greeted people of the country on the occasion of Diwali. "Deepavali ke pawan avsar par sabhi deshwasiyon ko hardik shubh kamnayien (Greetings to the countrymen on the auspicious occasion of Diwali)," the prime minister tweeted.
PM Modi even shared an image which carried a message, "Happy Diwali! May this auspicious festival brighten your lives with prosperity and good health and may there be happiness all around."
