It represents the victory of life over death, the atonement of sins, and the promise of eternal life for believers.
In his message, Modi said, “Greetings on Easter. This sacred day celebrates hope and renewal. May it bring peace, joy and brightness to everyone’s lives. May the teachings of Jesus Christ inspire all to be kind and strengthen the spirit of togetherness in society.” His statement focused on unity and positive values.

May this beautiful day bring new beginnings, strengthen your faith and fill your life with happiness, peace and countless blessings through God’s grace.” His message emphasized faith and new beginnings.
Union Health Minister JP Nadda shared his wishes as well. He wrote, “Warm greetings to everyone on the blessed occasion of Easter. This day reminds us of hope, kindness and new beginnings. May we follow the path shown by Lord Jesus Christ and spread love, compassion, and peace in our lives and society. Wishing happiness and prosperity to you and your loved ones.”
Similarly, Kiren Rijiju extended his message on social media. He said, “May this holy occasion inspire harmony, compassion and service to others. Remembering the teachings of Lord Christ, may our lives be filled with hope, light and togetherness.”
In Manipur, Chief Minister Yumnam Khemchand shared a detailed message. He said, “Easter is a powerful reminder that even after the darkest of times, hope rises, wounds heal, and new beginnings are always possible. Today, this message carries a deeper meaning for our state.”
He added, “Manipur has faced challenges that have tested our unity, trust, and resilience. But just as Easter signifies renewal and the triumph of faith, I firmly believe that our state, too, will emerge stronger, more united, and more determined than ever before. This is the time to rise above divisions, to rebuild bonds between communities, and to restore the spirit of brotherhood that has always defined Manipur. Peace is not just a goal, it is our collective responsibility.”
He further said his government would “restore normalcy, ensure justice, and bring inclusive development to every corner of the state”. He added, “We will continue to work tirelessly to heal, rebuild, and move forward together. Let this Easter inspire each one of us to choose peace over discord, unity over division, and hope over despair.”
