TFP Bureau, Raipur, September 3, 2025 : Celebrating the vibrant spirit of Chhattisgarh\u2019s cultural heritage, a grand Teeja Milan<\/em> was organised today at the residence of Revenue Minister Tank Ram Verma in Raipur. The festive occasion, held in the months of Sawan and Bhadon which are considered auspicious in the state, brought alive the colours of Chhattisgarhi folk music, dance, cuisine, and traditional rituals. Women, adorned in bright ethnic attire, performed melodious songs and dances, creating an atmosphere filled with joy and cultural pride.<\/p>\n

Chief Minister Vishnu Deo Sai, addressing the gathering, described Teeja<\/em> as a festival deeply rooted in devotion and family values. He said women observe fasts for the prosperity of their households and the long lives of their husbands, making the festival one of faith and sacrifice. \u201cOur folk traditions are the strongest medium to bind society together. Festivals like Teeja and Kajli Ekadashi not only have religious importance but also carry a strong message of fraternity and social unity. They embody our cultural identity,\u201d<\/em> the CM said. He reaffirmed that the guiding spirit for Chhattisgarh\u2019s progress remains Sabka Saath, Sabka Vikas, Sabka Vishwas, Sabka Prayas<\/em>.<\/p>\n

Speaker of the Legislative Assembly, Dr. Raman Singh, praised the women of Chhattisgarh for their multifaceted contributions. \u201cWomen here are not just nurturing families and preserving traditions; they are excelling in politics, education, social service and every other field. They are the custodians of culture while also bringing glory to the state through their achievements,\u201d<\/em> he said.<\/p>\n

Revenue Minister Tank Ram Verma, the host of the Teeja Milan<\/em>, highlighted the emotional significance of the festival for women. He said Teeja revives cherished memories of maternal homes, while also representing endurance, devotion and cultural richness. \u201cToday\u2019s celebration was not just a festive gathering, but a reflection of our traditions blending with modern aspirations,\u201d<\/em> he remarked.<\/p>\n

The celebration featured traditional delicacies, folk dances, and songs that echoed the essence of Chhattisgarh\u2019s rustic charm. Women exchanged greetings, prayed for family well-being, and rejoiced in a collective sense of cultural pride.<\/p>\n
