President Kovind on 3 nation tour |
President Ram Nath Kovind reached Chile on the third and final leg of his three nation tour on Sunday. In Chile, he participated in a community reception at Santiago, the capital of Chile organised by Indian community and Friends of India. Addressing Members of the Indian Diaspora and Friends of India, President said that as the world around us is increasingly falling prey to negative forces of terrorism, of violence, of greed and intolerance, the universal messages of peace and tolerance preached by Guru Nanak Dev ji and Mahatma Gandhi are increasingly relevant. President said that the values that shape India and Chile are the values that uphold the supremacy of the people. He said nowhere can this be seen in all its beauty as in the democratic exercise of the power of the people through elections. Next week India will be undergoing the first phase of its General Elections where over 900 million electors will cast their vote in what would be the largest democratic exercise on our planet. Earlier in Bolivia, President held delegation level talks with his Bolivian counterpart. He also participated in India-Bolivia business forum meeting and interacted with students at the University in Santa Cruz.
