Prime Minister Narendra Modi arrived in Delhi on Thursday after completing a three-nation tour of Japan, Papua New Guinea, and Australia. On his arrival at the airport, Prime Minister Modi was greeted by BJP National President JP Nadda and party members. Nadda arrived at Delhi’s Palam airport early Thursday morning to greet PM Modi upon his return to India after a three-nation tour.
While addressing a public gathering on Thursday in Delhi as he arrived in the national capital, concluding his three-nation visit, PM Modi said that the “world is eager to listen” to him as and when he tries to raise such an issue. “I want to tell you that while speaking about the culture and great tradition of India, never get immersed in a slave mentality, speak with courage. The world is eager to listen. The world agrees with me when I say that attack on our pilgrimage sites is not acceptable,” he said.
Referring to the surge in incidents of temple vandalism in Australia, Prime Minister Narendra Modi said that the world agrees with him when he says that the “attack on pilgrimage sites is not acceptable.”
Concluding the visit, Prime Minister Narendra Modi said, today the world wants to know what India is thinking.
PM Modi said, “The people here asked me why I gave the vaccines to the world. I want to say that this is the land of Buddha, Gandhi. We care even for our enemies… Today the world wants to know what India is thinking.”
He also spoke about India’s growing stature in the world and how it is being respected globally and said that this confidence comes from forming an absolute majority and thanked the people for reposing faith in his government.
“When I talk about the culture of my country, I look into the eyes of the world. This confidence has come because you have formed a government with an absolute majority in the country. Those who have come here are people who love India, not PM Modi,” he added.
Upon his arrival earlier today, the Prime Minister was garlanded by BJP National President JP Nadda and party members at the airport.
Appreciating PM Modi, BJP national President said, “The world appreciates your governance model. US President Joe Biden asked for your autograph, this shows how the world is seeing India under your leadership.”
“The way the PM of Papua New Guinea touched your feet, shows how much respect you have there. The people of India feel proud when they see that our Prime Minister is being welcomed like this,” he said.
A large number of BJP workers and supporters also gathered outside Palam airport to welcome PM Modi.
PM Modi further talked about the release of the Tok Pisin translation of the book ‘Thirukkural’ in Papua New Guinea and said, “Tamil language is our language. It is the language of every Indian. It is the oldest language in the world. I had the opportunity to release the Tok Pisin translation of the book ‘Thirukkural’ in Papua New Guinea.”
During his three-day visit, PM Modi held bilateral talks with his Australian counterpart and also addressed a historic community programme. He also met several business leaders and eminent Australians.
Qudos Bank Arena in Sydney Olympic Park, the venue for the community event, saw thousands of overseas Indians, many of whom flew in a special “Modi Airways” to attend PM Modi’s address in Australia.
At the community event, Australian PM Albanese compared PM Modi’s mass appeal with that of the famed rockstar Bruce Springsteen who incidentally is famed among his fans as “The Boss.”
“The Indian diaspora event in Sydney was not only attended by the Australian PM but also by former PM, MPs from opposition parties, and the ruling party. This is the strength of democracy. All of them together participated in this program of the Indian community,” said PM Modi to the gathering at Palam Airport.
