PM Modi's foreign visit turns into occasion to showcase Indian culture
The ongoing foreign visit of the Prime Minister, which has already witnessed several rare honours for him, has also turned into an occasion to showcase Indian culture. In Japan, the prime minister unveiled the bust of Mahatma Gandhi at Hiroshima, reflecting Indian values of peace and non-violence.
He also met and encouraged a linguist and an artist who are linked to Indian culture. At Papua New Guinea, he will release the Thirukkural in local lanaguage Tok Pisin.
In Australia, an entire locality of Sydney, Harris Park will now be recognised as Little India has a testimony of the growing influence of India and Indians.
Many rare honours in this foreign visit of PM Modi
Several rare honours for the prime minister have also been witnessed during his current trip. When PM Modi lands in Papua New Guinea their PM will come to receive PM Modi at the airport. Normally the country doesn’t give a ceremonial welcome for any leader coming after sunset. But a special exception is being made for PM Modi and a fully studded ceremonial welcome will be given to him.
The FIPIC Summit will see participation from leaders of 14 countries. Normally all of them rarely converge together due to connectivity and other issues. India is getting back-to-back invitations to G7 summits.
Australian PM will also participate in the community event at Sydney. The Harris Park area in Parramatta will be also known as ‘Little India’. This will be also announced during PM’s community event.
