Premier David Eby has issued the following statement marking Navratri:
“Tonight, Hindu communities in British Columbia will join others around the world in celebrating the beginning of the festival of Navratri.
“For the next nine nights, families, friends and loved ones will gather to pray to the nine manifestations of the divine feminine and perform the traditional garba dance to celebrate the victory of good over evil and of light over darkness. It is also a time for spiritual renewal.
“Hindu Canadians have made many positive contributions to British Columbia and Canada. We all benefit from living in a diverse province where we can share in the joy and celebrations of such festivals.
“I wish happiness and prosperity to all celebrating Navratri.”
