A society where women empowerment is encouraged at every level in a true sense can be considered to be a modern, developed and just society, Murmu said.

The nine forms of Goddess Durga symbolise the infinite power of mother nature, she added.

I wish the spirit of unity and fraternity is strengthened in our society through the festival of Durga Puja. Let us build a society where women are respected more and more and they are able to contribute equally in the process of nation building, President Murmu said.

I pray to Jagat Janani Maa Durga that she bestows her blessings upon all of us and all our countrymen may lead a life of happiness and prosperity, she added.
