People are supreme in governance and there is no place for arrogance, falsehood and reneging on promises in a ruler’s life, Congress president Sonia Gandhi said in her Dussehra message on Sunday.

Former Congress president Rahul Gandhi too extended Vijaya Dashami greetings saying truth ultimately triumphs.

In her message on Dussehra, Sonia Gandhi extended good wishes to all.

She said, “A symbol of triumph of justice over injustice, truth over falsehood and prudence over arrogance, Dussehra, after nine days of worship, also brings with it a new resolve and a vow to fulfill duties in any situation.”

People, Sonia said, are paramount in governance.

“And there is no place for arrogance, falsehood and breaking of promises in a ruler’s life. This is the biggest message of Vijaya Dashami,” she added.

She also asked people to be safe and protect themselves from coronavirus during the festivals and follow all Covid-19 guidelines.

The Congress president hoped that this Dussehra will not only bring happiness, peace and prosperity in everyone’s life but also strengthen harmony and cultural values among people.

Several senior Congress leaders, including general secretary (organisation) K C Venugopal and general secretaries Randeep Surjewala and Priyanka Gandhi Vadra, also extended greetings to people on Dussehra.  —With PTI inputs
