Some Elements and Political Parties Are Insulting Hinduism- Energy Minister Anil Vij
“Those Who Failed in Lahore, Will Fail in Peshor Too” — Rahul Gandhi’s Politics Has Come to an End- Anil Vij
Chandigarh, October 22: Haryana’s Energy, Transport and Labour Minister Sh. Anil Vij strongly criticized Congress leader Randeep Surjewala over his tweet regarding post-Diwali pollution in Haryana, stating that certain elements and political parties in the country repeatedly target Hinduism, its traditions, and culture.
Responding to media queries, Sh. Vij said that “There are some elements and parties in India that constantly oppose Hinduism, its traditions, and its culture. This is nothing new. In ancient times, when sages performed Yagyas (rituals), demons like Tadka and Bhasmasur would attempt to disrupt them — these people belong to the same mindset. They insult Hinduism through their words and statements, he said.”
Vij’s Jibe at Rahul Gandhi: “Those Who Failed in Lahore, Will Fail in Peshor Too”
Commenting on Congress leader Rahul Gandhi’s recent video showing him making sweets at a shop during Diwali, Anil Vij said that “Rahul Gandhi knows very well that his politics has come to an end. That’s why he is now looking for a new job. He keeps trying different things, but he doesn’t fit anywhere — because ‘those who failed in Lahore, will fail in Peshor too.’ Now, he seems to be experimenting with various activities just to stay relevant, Sh. Vij added.”

Lord Vishwakarma — the Creator of the Universe and Architect of Human Civilization- Energy, Transport and Labour Minister Anil Vij
“When an artisan works, it is Lord Vishwakarma within him who truly creates” – Anil Vij
Chandigarh, October 22: Haryana’s Energy, Transport, and Labour Minister Sh. Anil Vij said that Lord Vishwakarma is the divine creator of the universe and the one who shaped the world to make it suitable for human life. Vij said that “Before His creation, the earth was filled with chaos — storms, deep trenches, and dense forests. It was Lord Vishwakarma who designed and structured the universe to make it habitable for mankind, for He is omnipresent and lives within every human being”.
The Minister was addressing devotees as the chief guest at a function organized on the occasion of Vishwakarma Jayanti at Shri Guru Vishwakarma Temple, Ram Bagh Road, Ambala Cantonment. Earlier, Sh. Vij offered prayers at the temple and sought the blessings of Lord Vishwakarma.
“Every Artisan Embodies the Spirit of Vishwakarma” — Vij
Extending greetings on the auspicious occasion, the Minister said that the entire nation celebrates Lord Vishwakarma Jayanti, the day dedicated to the world’s greatest craftsman and divine architect. “This festival is celebrated twice a year — once in September and again on the day after Diwali. On this day, artisans across the country worship their tools and honor their craft with deep devotion,” he added.
Elaborating on the divine significance of creation, Shri Vij explained that “To create anything, three things are essential — a place, raw material, and creative energy. While we may not know from where the raw materials of the earth came, we know that it was Lord Vishwakarma who used them to build a world fit for human life. Everything that exists — homes, roads, schools, and institutions — is a manifestation of His creation, though we often put our own names on it.”
He said that every act of craftsmanship is, in essence, the work of Lord Vishwakarma Himself. “When an artisan carves a statue or builds something beautiful, it is Lord Vishwakarma working through his hands. The exquisite statues of Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose, Shaheed Bhagat Singh, and others in Ambala Cantonment are shining examples of this divine artistry,” he said. Quoting from the Bhagavad Gita, Vij emphasized that “work is worship, and action is the foundation of life,” urging everyone to continue their craft with sincerity and dedication.

Sanya met the Minister earlier during her journey through Ambala and had received his blessings. Today, her family expressed their gratitude to the Minister for his encouragement and recognition.
