Your Majesty, on the auspicious occasion of Your Majesty’s birthday, I extend my deepest respect and warmest wishes for good health and long life. Your visionary reign not only transformed Bhutan into a modern, harmonious nation guided by the ideals of Gross National Happiness but also strengthened the timeless bond between India and Bhutan. I also take pride in noting that my father served with Kuensel for nearly two decades during Your Majesty’s reign, witnessing firsthand your wisdom, compassion, and enduring leadership. It is an honour, as an Indian journalist, to salute a monarch whose guidance continues to inspire generations across our borders.
