Prime Minister Narendra Modi made another important announcement from Bhutan today. He said that in the near future, India will also build an immigration checkpoint near Gelephu to further facilitate visitors and investors.
“The progress and prosperity of India and Bhutan are intertwined, and with this sentiment, last year the Indian government announced a contribution of ₹10,000 crore for Bhutan’s Five-Year Plan. This fund is being used in every sector, from roads to agriculture, from finance to healthcare, thereby improving the ease of living for Bhutanese citizens. In the past, India has undertaken several initiatives to ensure a steady supply of essential goods to the people of Bhutan, and now the UPI payment facility is also expanding here. We are also working towards ensuring that Bhutanese citizens have access to UPI upon their arrival in India,” he said.
“In India, the inspiration of our ancestors is Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam, meaning the whole world is one family. With these sentiments, India has also participated in this Global Peace Prayer Festival in Bhutan. Today, saints from across the world are praying together for world peace, and this includes the prayers of 1.4 billion Indians,” he added.
PM Narendra Modi also announced that both countries are jointly building a satellite, a significant milestone for India-Bhutan relations.
He stated that a major strength of India-Bhutan relations is the spiritual connection between their people. “Two months ago, the Royal Bhutanese Temple was inaugurated in Rajgir, India. Now, this initiative is expanding to other parts of India,” he said.
The people of Bhutan desired a Bhutanese temple and guest house in Varanasi, and the Indian government is providing the necessary land for this. “Through these temples, we are further strengthening our precious and historical cultural ties. I wish that India and Bhutan continue on the path of peace, prosperity, and shared progress. May the blessings of Lord Buddha and Guru Rinpoche remain upon both our countries,” he said.
Following a powerful explosion that ripped through a car near Delhi’s Red Fort Metro Station on Monday evening, leaving 12 dead and many injured, the Delhi Police on Tuesday filed an FIR under the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act (UAPA) and the Explosives Act, officials said.
The FIR was filed at the Kotwali Police Station under the UAPA, the Explosives Act, and sections of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS), according to police officials. The FIR includes Sections 16 and 18 of the UAPA, dealing with punishment and conspiracy for a terror attack.
According to ANI, Delhi Police’s initial probe into the high-intensity explosion outside the Red Fort has traced the Hyundai i20 car involved in the blast to Jammu and Kashmir’s Pulwama, according to police sources
