The Chinese President and the First Lady later visited the Sabarmati Riverfront at Ahmedabad, accompanied by the Prime Minister. They witnessed glimpses of Gujarati culture.
The two leaders sat on a jhoola (swing) for a few moments. The President and the First Lady also sat on a traditional cot, before joining the Prime Minister for a private dinner on the riverfront.
Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi conveyed his heartfelt wishes for the New Year, expressing hope that every individual finds success in their endeavors in the times ahead.
Shri Modi emphasized that with determination and willpower, resolutions made in the New Year can be fulfilled.
The Prime Minister underlined that this timeless wisdom encourages us to rise, remain awake, and engage in actions that bring welfare, while keeping our minds steadfast and fearless in envisioning the future.
Sharing his message of inspiration through a Sanskrit verse in a post on X, Shri Modi said:
“मेरी कामना है कि आने वाले समय में आपको अपने हर प्रयास में सफलता मिले। दृढ़संकल्प और इच्छाशक्ति से नए साल में आपके संकल्प की सिद्धि हो।
उत्थातव्यं जागृतव्यं योक्तव्यं भूतिकर्मसु।
भविष्यतीत्येव मनः कृत्वा सततमव्यथैः।।”
मेरी कामना है कि आने वाले समय में आपको अपने हर प्रयास में सफलता मिले। दृढ़संकल्प और इच्छाशक्ति से नए साल में आपके संकल्प की सिद्धि हो।
