Uttarakhand CM Pushkar Singh Dhami performed havan for the state's prosperity on Hindu New Year amid discussions of a cabinet expansion during Navratri.

"May Vikram Samvat 2083 bring happiness, prosperity, good health, and new energy - Pushkar Singh Dhami"

Dehradun, March 19

Uttarakhand Chief Minister Pushkar Singh Dhami on Thursday performed a traditional havan and offered prayers at his residence on the occasion of the Hindu New Year and the first day of Chaitra Navratri.

He also performed jalaabhishek to Lord Shiva and sought blessings for the state. During the rituals, Dhami prayed to Maa Adi Shakti Bhagwati and Lord Mahadev for the happiness, prosperity, and well-being of all the people of the state, as well as for the continued progress and development of Uttarakhand.

In a separate post on X, the Chief Minister extended greetings to residents.

"Heartfelt congratulations and best wishes to all the residents of the state on the Hindu New Year. This sacred occasion symbolises new energy, fresh resolutions, and positive change, inspiring us to move forward in harmony with our culture and values. May God bless this New Year with happiness, prosperity, peace, and success in all your lives. Let us all come together to strengthen our resolve towards harmony, service, and nation-building," he said.

Earlier, Dhami extended greetings to the people of the state on the Hindu New Year, Vikram Samvat 2083, wishing for prosperity, good health and renewed energy in their lives.

In a post on X, the Chief Minister said, "Heartfelt congratulations and best wishes to all the residents of the state on the Hindu New Year. May Vikram Samvat 2083 bring happiness, prosperity, good health, and new energy into the lives of all of you. I pray to God that this New Year establishes new dimensions of development, well-being, and prosperity for the state, and brings progress and joy to the life of every family."

Meanwhile, discussions have intensified in Uttarakhand from the government to the BJP organisation regarding a possible expansion of the Chief Minister Pushkar Singh Dhami's cabinet during this auspicious period. At present, five ministerial positions remain vacant in the cabinet.

Sources told ANI that the performance records of MLAs are being closely evaluated for potential induction into the cabinet. Additionally, more than two dozen party leaders are likely to be appointed as "Daitvadhari" (equivalent to Ministers of State).

According to sources, multiple rounds of discussions have already taken place with the party's national leadership regarding the cabinet expansion. Once the groundwork between the government and the organisation is finalised, both for cabinet positions and Daitvadhari appointments, the expansion could be announced during Navratri itself.

Good to see our CM observing traditions. However, I hope the prayers are followed by concrete actions. The cabinet expansion should focus on merit and performance, not just political equations. The state needs efficient ministers.

Navratri is such a powerful time for new beginnings. Performing havan for the state's well-being sets a positive tone. Let's hope the energy of Chaitra Navratri brings stability and progress to Uttarakhand's governance.

Jai Bhole Nath! 🙏 Starting the administrative year with blessings from Mahadev is the best way. The focus should now be on fulfilling those resolutions for development, especially in the hills. The cabinet expansion is a crucial step.

While the prayers are nice, I hope the evaluation of MLAs for the cabinet is transparent and fair. We need ministers who work for the people, not just for the party. The 'Daitvadhari' appointments also need scrutiny.

We welcome thoughtful discussions from our readers. Please keep comments respectful and on-topic.
