I extend my warm greetings on the occasion of Foundation Day of Union Territory of Dadra and Nagar Haveli and Daman and Diu on 26th January, 2024.
This day marks not only the merging of two distinct Union Territories into one on January 26, 2020, but also celebrates the unique tapestry of cultures, natural beauty, and heritage that enrich our nation. Dadra and Nagar Haveli dazzles with its lush landscapes and attractions like Vanganga Lake and Satmaliya Deer Park, while Daman, with pristine beaches covered in golden sand, heritage forts, lush green palms, waterfalls and welcoming churches, offers a serene and culturally rich coastal experience reminiscent of a quintessential tropical paradise. Diu, known for its serene beaches and vibrant water sports, adds to our diverse yet unified identity. As we celebrate this day, let’s recommit to preserving our rich cultural heritage, protecting our environment, and fostering harmonious communities.
On the occasion of this Day, I extend my best wishes to the people of Dadra and Nagar Haveli and Daman and Diu residing in A & N Islands.
