The Lt. Governor, Shri V.K. Saxena was presented with a traditional Pankha to mark the beginning of the ‘Phool Walon Ki Sair’, yesterday in function at Raj Niwas. Organizers of the festival ‘Anjuman Sair-E-Gul Faroshan’, presented the Pankha to the Lt. Governor amidst tunes of Shahnai and other traditional musical instruments. 

Speaking on the occasion, the LG emphasized upon the need to revive the ‘Phool Walon Ki Sair’ to its traditional grandeur. He told the organizers that, he will personally take every step to ensure that the festival, which represented the true syncretic culture of Delhi is restored to its traditional glory.  The fact that the festival celebrated Goddess Yogmaya and Khwaja Bakhtiar Kaki together represented the very essence of ‘sambhav’ that the Prime Minister, Shri Narendra Modi espouses, Shri Saxena said. 

The LG will be presenting a Chadar of Flowers at the Yogmaya Temple and the Dargah of Khwaja Bakhtiar Kaki as part of Festival.
