Forget Valentine’s Day, Worship parents, says Chhattisgarh CM

Chhattisgarh chief minister Vishnu Deo Sai has urged the youths to keep away from the foreign culture and instead follow the ancient Indian values.

If they keep you happy then life will be successful. The Chief Minister also announced to celebrate February 14 as Mother-Father Worship Day in Chhattisgarh.

The chief minister said that his Guru had said that parents are greater than God. Mother gives birth. She nurtures her child after being keeping him in the womb for 9 months.

Giving examples from religious stories, the Chief Minister underlined the importance of parents and appealed to all the sons and daughters to keep their parents happy, seek their blessings and respect and honor them.

Explaining the importance of parents, he talked about taking their blessings and staying away from western culture to serve their parents and make them proud.

He said that even today he touched their feet and take blessings. ‘’I feel that the position where I am today, being the Chief Minister, is due to the blessings of my parents,’’ he added. The children participating in the program worshiped their parents as per rituals and also took a pledge to serve their parents. The children greeted Chief Minister Sai and other guests on the stage and received blessings.
