Chief Minister Shri Vishnu Deo Sai celebrated Janmashtami with differently abled children at his residence this time. The Chief Minister’s residence was filled with the frolic of 25 children from three social welfare institutions dedicated for differently abled children of Raipur.
Amidst festive mood and celebrations, these children were dressed as Radha and Krishna, who accompanied Chief Minister Shri Sai in religious rituals.
