Chief Minister Hemant Soren today inaugurated the five-day Diwali fair organised by Jharkhand IAS Officers’ Wives Association, JIASOWA at Morhabadi Ground in Ranchi. In his address, the CM said that Deepawali Mela is also a part of the same chain with the resolve and purpose of social concern with which it is helping the economically and socially helpless and needy. I convey my best wishes for expanding the circle of social concern of JIASOWA.
The CM said that helping the needy and helpless people is a factor in the civilisation and culture of our country. The way in which various organizations came out to help people across the country during the Covid-19 global pandemic, it is less to be praised. Some fed free food to the poor and needy, some provided medicines and some helped through other means. It inspires all of us for humanity and social engagement. This gives a lot of strength to those who provide help and support.
The CM said that troubles and problems can arise with anyone and at any time, in such a situation, we should create such an environment where people come forward to help the helpless poor and needy. They actively participate in the works related to social concern. Especially with the efforts of everyone, the spirit of harmony, harmony, brotherhood and cooperation can be promoted in the society.
