KATHMANDU, APRIL 6
Prime Minister KP Sharma Oli extended his best wishes on the occasion of Ram Nawami and Chaite Dashain today.
In a message shared on his social media account, Prime Minister Oli remarked that the ancient scripture Ramayana regards Lord Ram-born in the Treta Yuga-as an embodiment of peace, justice, righteousness, morality, order, good governance, and duty.
"In ancient civilizations, nations characterized by good governance were referred to as Ram Rajya," he wrote. "As Ram chose the path of dignity over popularity, he is revered as an ideal human being who exemplified supreme integrity."
The Ram Nawami festival, celebrated on the ninth day of the waxing moon in the lunar month of Chaitra, is being observed today with devout worship of Lord Ramchandra.
