Quotes
Shivraj Singh Chouhan
Union Minister of Agriculture who welcomed the Ganpati idol at his Bhopal residence
“Hum isliye bhi khush hain… charon taraf Ganpati Bappa ki dhoom hai. Ye hamari parampara hai, ye hamari sanskriti hai, ye hamare sanskar hain, ki hamare chote chote bacche, hamare naujawan yuva… kitne bhakti bhav se bhare hue hain… Ganesh Utsav ho ya Maiyaa ki aaradhna ho, Kanwar Yatra ho, inmein hamare yuva aur ye bacche hi aage rehte hain.”

“Chharon taraf anand, utsah aur bhakti ki leher hai. Ganpati Bappa padhare hain. Wo vighna vinashak hain. Sab par kripa aur aashirvaad ki varsha karein. Sabhi deshvasiyon ko aashirvaad dein. Sabke marg mein aane wali badhaayen vighna vinashak door karein. Sab sukhi ho, sab nirog ho, sabka mangal aur kalyan ho.”
