New Delhi, Oct 25 Congress President Sonia Gandhi on Sunday extended greetings to the nation on the occasion of Vijayadashmi. In her message, she said the nine-day puja festival is a symbol of victory over injustice and ego.

She 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.

She also appealed to people to protect themselves from the coronavirus during festivals and to follow all COVID-19 guidelines.
