New Delhi: Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Thursday April 10 , 2025 paid tributes to Mahavir, the 24th and last ‘tirthankar’ in the Jain religion, on his birth anniversary, saying his ideals give strength to countless people all around the world.
Modi said his government will always work to fulfil the vision of the reverted holy figure.
He noted that the government last year conferred the status of classical language on Prakrit, a decision which received a lot of appreciation.
He said, “We all bow to Bhagwan Mahavir, who always emphasised on non-violence, truth and compassion. His ideals give strength to countless people all around the world.”
“His teachings have been beautifully preserved and popularised by the Jain community. Inspired by Bhagwan Mahavir, they have excelled in different walks of life and contributed to societal well-being,” he added.
