Navroz, also referred to as Nowruz, is a festival of Iranian origin that signifies the traditional new year of the Parsi community.

 

Lieutenant Governor Manoj Sinha also conveyed his best wishes on the occasion.

 

In his message, he stated, “On the auspicious occasion of Navroz, I convey my heartiest greetings and best wishes to all. May the festivity and celebration on this Navroz inspire us towards righteous living and usher in peace, prosperity, and happiness for all.”

 

Nowruz, meaning “New Day” in Persian, marks the first day of spring and the commencement of the New Year in the Persian solar calendar.

 

With a history spanning three millennia, Nowruz has its roots in Zoroastrianism, an ancient Persian religion that predates both Christianity and Islam.
