हिंदी अनुवाद

YESTERDAY, IN GODHRA INHUMAN TRAGEDY HAS taken placem, more than 40 female and children were burnt alive and 18 males were also burnt alive. in all 58 people were mercilessly massacred in a single rail bogie by cannibals. I the history of mankind such a heinous crime can bring tears in the eyes of even the strongest of a person. The heinous crime, an act of cowardness and inhumanity has taken place in Gujrat, can’t be justified by any human society. A crime that can never be forgiven. I want to assure the people of Gujrat that anything like will never be tolerated. The culprit will be punished appropriately for the crime they have committed, not only that an example will be set so that in future, no will be ever dream to commit such a heinous act. The government of Gujrat is committed to the protection of its citizen. For the people who take the law in their hands and destroy the lives of innocent people, there is no place for the act in the civilized society. I share the grief of the people of gujrat. This is very painful moment and can’t be defiened. But the same time, but creating disturbances, indiscipline and venting anger is not the solution. Opposing the law and defying it witho riot and act of anger, I undersatnd your feeling, but I pray you that the need of the hour is to maintain peace and self-discipline. Those who have perpetrated the crime, we are strongly committed to punish them. No one will escape the law. Can you not help in saving our state Gujrat, the peace and harmony. The government of Gujrat appeals to you for help, for peace and discipline. In the midst of your anger it is my humble request that in such testing times Gujrat expects from you, what it is best known for, maintaing peace and harmony in the most enduring times for which there are many examples. Let us strengthen the hands of the law, let us creat a atmosphere that will ensure the most harsh punishment to the culprits of the heinuous crime and I am sure that my solmn appeal will touch your hearts. Let me assure that everyone in the goverment equally feels the shock and pain experienced by you. The level of pain is the same for all. Even the prime minister is disturbed by every development with regards to the incidents, so that the home minister of India. and the entire country has expressed solidarity with the grief of Gujrat, but it is our responsibility to maitain the peace, harmony and discipline. We understan you anger and pain, but still for the betterment of Gujrat. For a Gujrat whose future does not get lost. For a Gujrat that does not have to carry the burden of a black moment in the history, maintain peace and harmony. I also want to express my gratitude to you, that in the midst of so much anger of the 1800 villeges of Gujrat, only a few handfuls have expressed disturbances. More and less there has an atmosphere of peace, however the development that have taken place in the cities of the Gujrat is disturbing and it is my request, tit for tat is not a resolution. I am not here you give advice or sermons, but I can see the bright future of Gujrat and for that, I have came to seek your help. Come forward and help the government in process of maintaining peace. GOVERMENT SEEKS YOUR HELP in creating the right atmosphere for this to happen. It is my faith that people of Gujrat will respond to my feeling and together we shall work to ensure peaceful Gujrat, that the innocent donot suffer or loose lives in our reponsibility. Come, let us together work toward establishing peace. Once agin, let me assure you that I fully understand your pain and grief, however, let us together strengthen law so as to get the highest possibe punishment to the perpetrators and set a historical example. Once again I appeal to the people of Gujrat for peace. let us take the pathe of peace and bring to life the mantra of jai jai Gujrat. Thank you.
