नान्तर्बहिश्च लोकेषु त्वात्मानं दृष्टवान् क्वचित्।
आष्टाङ्गिकेन मार्गेण परमां शान्तिमाययौ॥"

“ગુજરાત સ્થાપના દિવસ નિમિત્તે રાજ્યના તમામ નાગરિકોને હાર્દિક શુભેચ્છાઓ…!!
આ દિવસ એ ગુજરાતના સમૃદ્ધ ઇતિહાસ, જીવંત સંસ્કૃતિ અને અદમ્ય જિજ્ઞાસા-ઉમંગના ઉત્સવનું પ્રતિક છે. ગુજરાતની ધરતી પર વસતા લોકો તેમની ગતિશીલતા, મહેનત અને ઉદ્યોગસાહસિકતા માટે વિશ્વભરમાં ઓળખાતા રહ્યા છે. રાજ્યએ દેશના આર્થિક, સામાજિક અને સાંસ્કૃતિક વિકાસમાં નોંધપાત્ર યોગદાન આપ્યું છે.
આવનારા સમયમાં ગુજરાત પ્રગતિના નવા શિખરો સર કરે તેવી અંતઃકરણપૂર્વક અભ્યર્થના…!!"
