"May everyone attain a life filled with glory, prosperity, and good health through the grace of Mother Siddhidatri, the ninth form of the compassionate Mother Durga, and may her grace ever remain upon the entire animate and inanimate world," he added.

Uttarakhand Chief Minister Pushkar Singh Dhami also extended his best wishes on the occasion.

"Heartfelt congratulations and best wishes to all of you on the sacred festival of the ninth day of Navratri, dedicated to the worship of Maa Siddhidatri, the presiding deity of the eight great siddhis (spiritual powers).
