Mumbai, Aug 18 (UNI) The Governor of Maharashtra S M Krishna greeted the people on the occasion of the 'Parsi New Year' on monday.

In his message, Mr Krishna said ''The contribution of the Parsi community to the development and progress of India is immeasurable.

Members of the peace-loving community were in the forefront of the nation's freedom struggle. Again, they were the forerunners, who laid the foundations for commerce and industry in the country. The nation owes so much to the small community of Parsis in India''.

''The New Year day provides all of us an opportunity to reflect on the immortal message of 'Good Thought, Good Word and Good Deed', given by Prophet Zoroaster '', the Governor said in his message.
