‘People from various regions of the UAE and different states of India have gathered at the venue and “everyone’s hearts are connected’, said PM Modi.
“Today in Abu Dhabi, you have created a new history. You have come here from all corners of the UAE and different states of Bharat. But everyone’s heart is connected. At this historic stadium, every heartbeat, every breath, every voice says – Long live Bharat-UAE friendship,” PM Modi said at the packed Zayed Sports Stadium.
“I bring with me a message from 140 crore Bharatiyas, and it’s simple yet profound – Bharat is proud of you,” PM Modi told the Bharatiya community, adding “Your enthusiasm paints a beautiful picture of ‘Ek Bharat, Shreshtha Bharat’.
The Bharatiya expatriate community of approximately 3.5 million is the largest ethnic community in the UAE, constituting roughly 35 per cent of the country’s population.
