Pimpri-Chinchwad | An important meeting was held today at the Bharatiya Janata Party’s Pimpri-Chinchwad city office.

Speaking after the meeting, City President Shatrughan Kate said, “Under the bold leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, ‘Operation Sindoor’ has been completely successful. We will celebrate this victory festival to honor the Indian Army for teaching a lesson to terrorist forces.” Referring to PM Modi’s speech in Parliament, he stated that celebrating this victory festival is the duty of every patriotic citizen.
The meeting emphasized two major upcoming campaigns. Under the ‘Har Ghar Tiranga’ campaign, the tricolor will be hoisted on every house. Awareness will be created by visiting households, with a special focus on hoisting the flag through children.
Additionally, Shatrughan Kate informed that 1.45 lakh rakhis will be sent from the city for the Raksha Bandhan program. He stated that this program aims to promote social harmony and brotherhood.
