Festivals like Dussehra should not be a mere source of entertainment but also inspire us and give us the resolve to do something for society and the nation, Prime Minister Narendra Modi said here on Saturday.
He also urged the citizens to make a resolve on this day of Vijaydashmi to contribute in some constructive way towards nation building by 2022, when India would celebrate 75 years of its Independence.
“Festivals like Dussehra should not be seen as mere source of entertainment but should also become an ambition and resolve to do something,” Modi said addressing the gathering at Shri Dharmik Ram Leela at Red Fort here before the effigies of Ravana, Meghnad and Kumbhakaran were burnt.
