- Now this is true friendship! As PM @narendramodi is sworn in for a second term in office, the iconic @ADNOCGroup tower in Abu Dhabi is lit up with India and UAE flags and portraits of our PM and of HH Sheikh @MohamedBinZayed @IndianDiplomacy @PMOIndia
00:00 - This won't make the headlines so just pause and applaud: Team Bharat has topped the medals tally at the #SpecialOlympicsWorldGames2019 with a phenomenal 368 medals including 85 golds. Great show by our specially-abled. .@IndianDiplomacy
- It is absolutely disgusting to see the trolls target Foreign Secretary @VikramMisri and his family. He has been a picture of professionalism - calm, composed, measured and articulate. But that’s not enough for the bloodlust of a section of our society. Shameful!
- The @LuLuGroup_India founded by @Yusuffali_MA in UAE have invested well over ₹10,000 cr in India. They source >₹3000 cr of fresh produce from India for their hyper markets, create 1000s of jobs. And they have to disclose the religious identity of their staff? Tragic!Responding to certain claims by right wing that 70% staff in LuLu mall are Muslim, regional director of the mall in release said there is no discrimination based on any grounds. He claimed more than 80% of the staff are Hindu while and remaining from other religions.
- 2. We are in regular contact with the family of #Sridevi and other well- wishers. We share their pain. 3. Our experience in similar cases tells us that it does take 2-3 days to complete processes 4. We leave it to the experts to determine cause of demise Let's be responsible
- A new innings begins from tomorrow Looking forward to life as a private citizen after 36 years as a diplomat Cairo, Damascus, Washington DC, Dar es Salaam, London, Johannesburg, Cairo, Canberra, Abu Dhabi. It's been a privilege to represent our country, serve our people
- After completion of all local processes, mortal remains of #Sridevi are now on enroute to Mumbai. Must acknowledge sterling efforts of CG Vipul and team @cgidubai Thanks to example set by Min @SushmaSwaraj we quietly do the same for any Indians in distress. We care.
- f) #UAE is a strategic partner - our 3rd largest trading partner, source of FDI, partner in energy security, home to 3.4 mn Indians who sent $17 bn in remittances to their families. g) Bilateral ties are strong and will endure. But unnecessary controversy doesn’t help
- TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN Please please don’t play politics around PM’s security. It will make all parties look foolish. All of them. Guaranteed! Our enemies will laugh at us. Guaranteed! And there will be a price to pay. Guaranteed! Think. Is it really worth whatever?
- The media interest in untimely demise of #Sridevi is understandable. But the frenzy of speculation does not help. Imp to note that: 1. We are working with local authorities to ensure that mortal remains can be sent to India at the earliest. We are on the job. 1/2
- A big day for #IndiaUAE relations as HH @MohamedBinZayed announces Order of Zayed, UAE'S highest award to PM @narendramodiI am extremely happy to welcome the announcement of Order of Zayed for a great son of India Prime Minister @narendramodi by His Highness @MohamedBinZayed.
- c) #UAE has strong laws against hate speech. This applies to derogatory remarks against ALL religions d) @AmbKapoor has alerted our Indian community e) Hate speech emanating out of India is another matter. It provides fodder to those unhappy with India-UAE friendship ...2
