Will strengthen India’s ‘deep connect’ with its diaspora: Modi
As part of his two-nation tour to the UAE and Qatar beginning Today, Prime Minister Narendra Modi will strengthen India’s ‘deep connect’ with its diaspora in both countries.
Roughly 840,000 Indians reside in Qatar, and at 3.5 million, the community forms the largest expatriate group in the UAE, forming an ‘important connect’ between the host and mother countries.
A day before inaugurating the BAPS Mandir, the first Hindu temple in Abu Dhabi on February 14, the PM will address the Indian community at an event in Zayed Sports City.
“On (the) 13th itself, the Prime Minister will be addressing a community event in Abu Dhabi to further strengthen our deep connection with our diaspora family in the UAE,” Foreign Secretary Vinay Mohan Kwatra said at a special Ministry of External Affairs briefing on Monday.
