The Chinese President and the First Lady later visited the Sabarmati Riverfront at Ahmedabad, accompanied by the Prime Minister. They witnessed glimpses of Gujarati culture.
The two leaders sat on a jhoola (swing) for a few moments. The President and the First Lady also sat on a traditional cot, before joining the Prime Minister for a private dinner on the riverfront.
The Prime Minister, Shri Narendra Modi said that courage is the greatest strength of a nation. He noted that it inspires the country to remain united even in the face of difficult challenges and to move steadily towards progress, prosperity and self-reliance.
The Prime Minister shared a Sanskrit Subhashitam-
“चलन्ति गिरयः कामं युगान्तपवनाहताः।
कृच्छ्रेऽपि न चलत्येव धीराणां निश्चलं मनः।। ”
The Subhashitam conveys that even mountains, lashed by tempestuous winds, are shaken and set in motion at the time of dissolution; yet amid the gravest trials, the mind of the steadfast remains unwavering and undisturbed.
The Prime Minister wrote on X;
“धैर्य किसी राष्ट्र की सबसे बड़ी शक्ति है। इससे कठिन चुनौतियों के बीच भी देश को एकजुट रहने के साथ ही प्रगति, समृद्धि और आत्मनिर्भरता की दिशा में निरंतर आगे बढ़ने की प्रेरणा मिलती है।
चलन्ति गिरयः कामं युगान्तपवनाहताः।
कृच्छ्रेऽपि न चलत्येव धीराणां निश्चलं मनः।।”
