    On this festive occasion, here's wishing each one of our Hindu brethren a happy and prosperous Deepawali. May the Transcendent Light illumine your hearts, homes and communities. May all your celebrations deepen the sense of belonging to one another in your families and neighbourhoods.

    As this festival of lights signifies victory of good over evil, let us all join together and pray to the Omnipotent God to protect our motherland from the threats of our neighbour countries, especially Pakistan- a thorn in our flesh. Let us all- Christians, Hindus, Muslims and other religions remain united and strive hard to live in peace and social harmony, as we all belong to one huge family. This is my most humble appeal/message to all.

    God bless India!
