“देशभर के मेरे परिवारजनों को रामनवमी की असीम शुभकामनाएं। त्याग, तप और संयम से भरे मर्यादा पुरुषोत्तम के जीवन से हमें हर परिस्थिति का पूरे सामर्थ्य से सामना करने की प्रेरणा मिलती है। उनके आदर्श अनंतकाल तक भारतवासियों के साथ-साथ संपूर्ण मानवता के पथ-प्रदर्शक बने रहेंगे। मेरी कामना है कि भगवान राम की कृपा से सबका कल्याण हो, जिससे विकसित और आत्मनिर्भर भारत के संकल्प की सिद्धि का मार्ग प्रशस्त हो।”
