The Prime Minister mentioned the traditional idea of sakha saptapada bhava, which highlights friendship and togetherness in marriage. He wished that the couple would share dreams, support each other, accept each other’s imperfections, and grow stronger together with love and understanding.
He ended the letter by sending his blessings and wishing them happiness for the years to come. His message quickly became popular on social media and added a special national touch to the wedding celebrations.
