February 6 marks a somber day as India commemorates Bharat Ratna Lata Mangeshkar’s punyatithi. Social media lit up with reverent posts from CMs Yogi Adityanath, Pushkar Dhami, and others, extolling the Nightingale’s role in immortalizing Indian ethos through song.
UP CM Yogi posted evocatively: ‘Tribute to the voice that honored Indian music globally. Her singular gayan and passion form an eternal artistic bequest.’
Uttarakhand CM Dhami hailed, ‘Infinite bows to the artist who globalized our music, stirring souls and showcasing cultural pride.’
Education Minister Pradhan reflected, ‘Lataji’s swars embodied faith, nationalism, empathy—linking generations. Her legacy as culture’s soul endures.’
Deputy CM Maurya lauded her as music’s divine practitioner, whose tender tones vitalized Indian melody with desh bhakti and human sentiment.
Actor-turned-MP Ravi Kishan and BJP’s UP chief Pankaj Chaudhary completed the chorus, vowing her harmonious legacy would enchant eras.
With a career boasting iconic tracks in multiple tongues, Lataji shaped soundtracks of lives. Post her 2022 demise, such remembrances by leaders spotlight her as a unifying force. In a diverse nation, her voice bridged divides, and today’s tributes ensure her swars echo indefinitely.
