Diwali celebrated in Ambaradi village after two years following farmers' release from jail

In Ambaradi village of Muli taluka in Surendranagar district, the festival of Diwali has brought true happiness this year. Last year, due to the Kalda incident and other disputes, the village farmers were serving jail terms, because of which the entire area was immersed in mourning and Diwali could not be celebrated. This year, as the farmers have been released from jail, an atmosphere of renewed light and enthusiasm is being witnessed in the entire village.

Farmer leader Raju Karpada, who could not celebrate Diwali last year due to being in jail, arrived directly at Ambaradi village on the auspicious day of Diwali to meet the farmer families. Along with him, a large number of farmer leaders from surrounding rural areas were also present. Rajubhai fed sweets to children, shared happiness by meeting them, and received blessings from the elders.

During this visit, all the leaders visited the sacred site of Vihal Bapu Raba and 12 Bhayband to offer prayers and fulfilled their vows. Additionally, a meeting was organized in the presence of village leaders and farmers, in which serious discussions were held regarding irrigation water, the current condition of reservoirs, and other local issues of the village. In this manner, after a long struggle of 2 years, farmers being able to celebrate the festival of Diwali joyfully with their family members has spread a wave of happiness across the entire region.
