New Delhi, Oct 16 (IBNS): Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Sunday remembered the noble ideals and thoughts of Maharshi Valmiki on Valmiki Jayanti.

"Remembering the noble ideals and pure thoughts of Maharshi Valmiki on Valmiki Jayanti. His impact on our society is phenomenal," the Prime Minister said.

Maharshi Valmiki is regarded as the harbinger-poet in Sanskrit literature.

The epic Ramayana, dated variously from 5th century BCE to first century BCE, is attributed to him, based on the attribution in the text itself.

He is revered as Ādi Kavi, writer of Ramayana.
