The Prime Minister also extended his appreciation to Purva Mantri, a rising singer, for her melodious rendition of the song. He praised her talent and thanked her for beautifully bringing the Garba to life with her voice.
Garba, a traditional dance from Gujarat, holds a special place during the Navratri festival, as it is performed in honor of Goddess Durga. The dance is a vibrant and joyful expression of devotion, celebrated with great enthusiasm across the country during this nine-day festival.
