Sticking to tradition, PM Modi to celebrate Diwali with soldiers in Rajouri.

Maintaining the tradition he started ever since he took office in 2014, Prime Minister Narendra Modi is set to celebrate Diwali with soldiers this year too, sources said.

The prime minister, who lit diyas with Army soldiers at the Longewala border in Rajasthan’s Jaisalmer last year, will visit Jammu and Kashmir this time and is likely to head to Nowshera and Rajouri border posts on Thursday, top government sources added.

PM Modi had celebrated the festival with soldiers at the Line of Control (LoC) in Rajouri district in 2019 too.
