Watch: Modi’s Solidarity with Nepal on Buddha Purnima

Prime Minister Narendra Modi paid tribute to the people of Quake-hit Nepal on Buddha Purnima Divas.

On ‘Buddha Purnima’ the birth anniversary of the Buddha, PM Narendra Modi said his teachings of compassion were the answer to the ongoing turmoil in the world. Modi said he wished his “beloved” Nepal bounced back soon from its current crisis created by the devastating earthquake.

“The birthplace of Lord Buddha, our beloved Nepal is going through a massive crisis. It is difficult to imagine how long and arduous this journey will be. We should share the pain of people of Nepal. Let us pray to Lord Buddha that they get new strength,” he said.
