PM Modi in Austria: India has given Buddha to the world, not yuddha

Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Wednesday said in Vienna that India has given ‘Buddha’ to the world, not ‘Yuddha’ (war). He added that the country has always given peace and prosperity, and therefore the country is going to strengthen its role in the 21st century.

Addressing the Indian community, Modi also said that India is working towards being the best, the brightest, achieving the biggest and reaching the highest milestones.

“For thousands of years, we have been sharing our knowledge and expertise. We didn’t give ‘Yuddha’ (war), we gave the world ‘Buddha’. India always gave peace and prosperity, and therefore India is going to strengthen its role in the 21st century,” PM Modi said in Austria. This was a day after he arrived there from Moscow where he highlighted the importance of finding a peaceful solution to the Ukraine conflict during his talks with President Vladimir Putin.
