"Whenever you attend Ramleela, keep watchful eye on surroundings from security perspective ," says Delhi Minister

New Delhi [India], September 29 (ANI): Union Minister and BJP national president JP Nadda, Union Minister Piyush Goyal, Delhi BJP president Virendraa Sachdeva, and Delhi Minister Parvesh Verma attended the Ramleela celebrations organised by Shri Dharmic Leela at the Ramlila Maidan in the capital.

Speaking at the event, Parvesh Verma urged residents of Delhi to celebrate responsibly and remain alert during the festive season. “I want to tell all the residents of Delhi that it is festival time. Please, whenever you attend Ramleela, keep a watchful eye on the surroundings from a security perspective and maintain harmony among yourselves,” he said to the reporters.

Meanwhile, Delhi Chief Minister Rekha Gupta on Friday attended the fifth day of the Ramleela organised by Sanatan Sanskarm in Sector 23 of the Bawana constituency, Rohini, as the chief guest.

During her visit, the Chief Minister interacted with differently-abled children present at the event and appreciated their active participation in the cultural celebrations.

Earlier this week, CM Rekha Gupta had announced that loudspeakers used during Ramleela, Durga Puja, and other cultural-religious events in Delhi would be permitted until midnight, extending the time limit beyond the earlier restriction of 10 PM.

The chief minister said the time extension aims to allow Hindu festivals to continue without time restrictions, similar to celebrations in other states.

The nine-day Navratri festival, dedicated to the worship of Goddess Durga’s nine incarnations, is being celebrated across the country with devotion. The festivities include fasting, prayers, and traditional dances such as Garba and Dandiya, contributing to a joyful and vibrant atmosphere. (ANI)
