Reading about the history was fascinating. 1971 feels like yesterday for a state with such ancient roots. The emphasis on "Devbhoomi" and "Land of the Brave" captures its essence perfectly. Best wishes from Delhi!

While the greetings are nice, I hope the focus remains on real issues facing the state—youth employment, connectivity during winters, and support for farmers. A golden future needs more than just words. Respectfully.
