Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Sunday greeted the residents of Jharkhand on the state’s foundation day and noted that the state is a unique confluence of tribal pride, cultural diversity, and natural wealth.
Jharkhand, which is known for its pristine forests and natural resources, was created on November 15, 2000, from what was previously the southern areas of Bihar.
“Heartfelt greetings to all brothers and sisters of Jharkhand on the State Foundation Day! Our state is a unique confluence of tribal pride, cultural diversity, and natural wealth,” PM Modi said in a post X in Hindi.
The Prime Minister said the state’s dense forests, scenic waterfalls, and historical sites enrich its distinct identity.
“The traditions here have continuously drawn inspiration from the tales of valour and sacrifice of Bhagwan Birsa Munda Ji,” he said.
PM Modi said that from minerals and energy to handicrafts and tourism, this state holds immense possibilities.
The Prime Minister said he was confident that on the strength of the resolve and capability of the hardworking and talented residents of Jharkhand, the state will scale new heights of development.
“My wish is that this special occasion brings happiness, prosperity, and well-being into the lives of all the people here,” he said.
