PPP Diwali message to the nation

Georgetown : The People’s Progressive Party extends best wishes to all Guyanese and to the Hindu community on the occasion of Diwali.

The party says “the wonderful festival of lights has come this year on the eve of our National and Regional elections. The message of Diwali has therefore taken on even greater meaning.

We recall the darkness which our country had to go through during the dark days of dictatorship. In that time the fundamental rights of our people were violated and that led to grave social and economic hardship.

The light broke through in 1992 when the PPP/C won the first free and fair elections in post independent Guyana.

The light has grown brighter since that day as the PPP was able to change the course of things and improve the quality of life in our country.

Today the struggle is to keep the lights shining and avoid going back in the wilderness.

Let us keep the light of Peace, Progress and Prosperity shining ever brighter in Guyana.

A Happy Diwali to all.”
