After concluding his two-day UAE visit, Prime Minister Narendra Modi has emplaned for Qatar, for the second leg of his two-nation visit.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who inaugurated the majestic Bochasanwasi Akshar Purushottam Swaminarayan Sanstha (BAPS) Mandir here on Wednesday, inscribed the message of ‘Vasudhaiva Kutumbakam’ on a stone in premises of the religious place.
Prime Minister Modi also engaged with children at the BAPS Hindu temple, who crafted miniature art pieces.
He met volunteers and key contributors who were involved in creation of the temple, from its inception to its completion.

‘BAPS Mandir’, the first traditional Hindu temple in the United Arab Emirates, sits on 27 acres of land that was generously gifted by the UAE leadership.
In Doha, PM Modi will hold bilateral meeting with the Emir of Qatar, Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani, as the Ministry of External Affairs had announced earlier.
This visit assumes significance as it comes days after a diplomatic victory for Bharat following the release of eight Bharatiya citizens who were detained in Qatar for nearly 18 months since August 2022.
Earlier in the day, PM Modi inaugurated the majestic Bochasanwasi Akshar Purushottam Swaminarayan Sanstha (BAPS) Mandir, the first Hindu temple in Abu Dhabi, UAE.
“From UAE after completing his visit on February 14, Prime Minister Narendra Modi will travel to Doha, Qatar on February 14. During the visit, PM Modi will hold bilateral meetings with Emir of Qatar Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani and other high dignitaries in Qatar,” Foreign Secretary Vinay Mohan Kwatra said earlier while addressing a special briefing on PM Modi’s visits.
The Foreign Secretary also said that PM Modi’s visit would provide an opportunity for leaders to discuss ways to further deepen and strengthen the multifaceted partnership.
