Top quotes of PM Modi
- This opportunity to join all of you in the joy of Christmas, this day, will be memorable for all of us. This occasion is also special because this year marks the 80th anniversary of the establishment of CBCI. On this occasion, I extend my heartiest congratulations to CBCI and all the people associated with it.
- Just a few weeks ago, His Holiness Pope Francis conferred the title of Cardinal on His Eminence Cardinal George Couvacad. The Government of India officially sent a high-level delegation led by Union Minister George Kurien to this event. When a son of India reaches this height of success, it is natural for the entire country to feel proud.
- The children of India, wherever they may be in the world… whatever trouble they may be in… today’s India saves them from every crisis… it considers this its duty.
India also gives priority to human interest along with national interest in its foreign policy. During the Corona period, the whole world saw and felt it.
