Union Cabinet approves India-UAE pact on economic corridor
The aim of the IGFA is to enhance the bilateral relations and to further strengthen the relations between the two countries in the ports, maritime and logistics sectors.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi, on Monday, underlined the need for widening the scope of research on modern Indian history both in terms of individuals, institutions and themes, so as to create better awareness among people about the country’s past.
He also emphasised the need for institutions in the country, in general, to create their well-audited and researched recorded memory for the benefit of the present as well as future generations.
The PM was presiding over the Annual General Meeting of the Nehru Memorial Museum & Library (NMML) Society, in his capacity as the President of the Society.

Expressing satisfaction over the design and content of the ”Pradhanmantri Sangrahalaya”, Modi underlined the important fact that this museum is truly objective and nation-centric, not person-centric and that it suffers neither from undue influence nor from the unwarranted absence of any required facts.
In order to take the message of the ”Sangrahalaya” highlighting the achievements and contributions of all the Prime Ministers of India to the people, he spoke on the need to make the Sangrahalaya popular among youth by organising competitions about its content in colleges and universities across the country.
He expressed his hope that in the near future the ”Sangrahalaya” would emerge as a central attraction for visitors to Delhi from India and the world.
Mentioning that the 200th birth anniversary of Swami Dayanand Saraswati, the founder of Arya Samaj in 1875 and one of the most influential social and cultural figures of modern India, was coming in 2024, the PM called upon the academic and cultural institutions across the country to produce well-researched knowledge about the contributions of this great visionary and social reformer to the country as well as about the Arya Samaj which is going to complete 150 years of its existence in 2025.
