Mr Chouhan further said that in the coming months, Diwali is going to be celebrated thrice.

“First is being celebrated today, second on December 3 when BJP will form the government and the third on January 22 when the idol of Lord Ram will be installed at Ram Temple in Ayodhya by Prime Minister Narendra Modi,” he added.
