“I feel happy to celebrate the festival with them and to share happiness with them. Those children who are from Bhopal and nearby areas will celebrate Diwali here in Bhopal. For children who are from far-flung, we are instructing the collector to organize a program, present their gifts and share happiness with them. Happy Diwali to all my sons and daughters. Don’t worry, Mama is with them,” Chouhan added.
