Delhi Lieutenant Governor Najeeb Jung and Chief Minister Sheila Dikshit today extended their greetings to the citizens on the occasion of Vijay Dashmi and Dussehra.
Jung said the festival of Dussehra depicts the victory of good over evil.
"It is the celebration of Shakti and Bhakti and symbolises our inner struggle to rise to higher levels of consciousness. Mother Durga epitomises female dynamism and guides us in the path of righteousness and blesses our land with peace, happiness and prosperity.
"May this festival strengthen bonds of brotherhood and may Mother Durga shower her blessings on all our people forever," Jung said.
Dikshit, in her message, said that these festivals symbolised the composite culture of the capital city.
"The victory of good over evil would remind all about pursuing the right path. The religious fervour would continue to inspire all of us to promote the values of harmony and co-existence," Dikshit said.
