KARNALI: Chief Minister of Karnali State Jeevan Bahadur Shahi has stressed the need for retaining the originality of the Teej festival and shunning its celebration in an extravagant way.
May this festival encourages people to create an equitable society by ending all sorts of inequality including gender and ethnic discrimination existing in the society, he said in a message of best wishes on the occasion of Haritalika Teej.
“Teej has helped bind the society in a thread of unity of sentiments. It has its own originality and has strengthened relations among sisters, friends, families and relatives of Nepali people.”
He expressed the hope that such religious and cultural festivals would help maintain unity, religious tolerance and social harmony among all Nepali people. Hindu women are observing the festival across the country today.
