You are a brand ambassador for Make in India, Yoga, the Handicraft sector, and India’s millets.” He went on to say that the spirit of Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam may be seen in the foreign Indians.
“Today, we see crores of abroad Indians on the world map… the spirit of Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam is manifest,” stated Prime Minister Narendra Modi.
