On the occasion of the Bathukamma festival, Telangana Governor Jishnu Dev Varma and Chief Minister Revanth Reddy conveyed their wishes to the people of the state on Tuesday.

"On the auspicious occasion of the Bathukamma festival, I extend my heartiest wishes and warm greetings to all the women of Telangana," said a release from Rajbhavan.

Bathukamma, a festival deeply connected to mother nature, is a sacred celebration of life and feminine energy. It is a vibrant expression of devotion by the women of Telangana, who, through their creativity and prayers, invoke the divine blessings of Goddess Gauri.

The colourful seasonal wildflowers used in crafting the beautiful idols of Bathukamma are nature's gift, endowed with medicinal properties that cleanse the water bodies filled by the abundance of the monsoon rains. These flowers, arranged with devotion, symbolize the harmony between nature and life.

The festival marks the joyous reunion of families as daughters return to their ancestral homes to partake in the nine-day celebration, offering prayers and songs in honour of Goddess Gauri. Bathukamma stands as a proud tribute to the rich culture and traditions of Telangana, embodying the essence of devotion, unity, and the nurturing spirit of womanhood.

Meanwhile, Telangana Chief Minister Revanth Reddy also extended greetings to the women's community on the occasion of the Bathukamma festival.

CM said that Bathukamma is a revered festival as women adore Nature and worship flowers and wished that everyone celebrates the festival with pomp and gaiety, said the statement from CMO.

The Bathukamma festival is a testament to the unity of life by people who share their happiness and hardships, the CM said, wishing everyone to celebrate the festival from 'Engilipula' to 'Saddula' with gusto.

CM Revanth Reddy prayed to the "Gauramma" deity to bring light into the lives of people of the state and get rid of them from hardships. (ANI)
