“I leave Mongolia with great joy. My visit was historic, path breaking & one that will take India's ties with Mongolia to spectacular heights” – this was how Prime Minister Narendra Modi described his recent visit to Mongolia. One-day visit by the Indian Prime Minister to the land of spiritual neighbour opened up broad avenues of partnership and cooperation between both the Nations.

The tour was historic as Shri Narendra Modi became the first Indian Prime Minister ever to land on Mongolian soil. The friendship between the two nations reached new heights with PM Modi meeting President Mr. Elbegdorj Tsakhia and discussing upon ways for strengthening India-Mongolia ties. The Prime Minister presented him a specially commissioned reproduction of a rare 13th century manuscript on the history of Mongols. In return, President of Mongolia also presented Shri Modi with a unique gift.

Numerous pacts were inked between both the Nations in the presence of PM Modi and PM Chimed Saikhanbileg for advancing peace, stability and prosperity in the region.  The agreements covered economic relations, development partnership, security as well as people to people partnerships. India took a major leap and considered Mongolia to be an integral part of India’s Act East Policy.

A Community Reception and Yoga Event was organised by ‘Art of Living’ in Mongolia. Shri Narendra Modi while visiting the Gandan Monastery where he presented a Bodhi Tree Sapling to Hamba Lama, the Mini Naadam Festival gave a boost to the cultural and spiritual ties with Mongolia.

अतः मंगोलिया की उनकी यात्रा सही मायने में विशिष्ट एवं अभूतपूर्व थी।

Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi chaired the 48th meeting of PRAGATI, the ICT-enabled, multi-modal platform aimed at fostering Pro-Active Governance and Timely Implementation, by seamlessly integrating efforts of the Central and State governments, at South Block, earlier today.

During the meeting, Prime Minister reviewed certain critical infrastructure projects across the Mines, Railways, and Water Resources sectors. These projects, pivotal to economic growth and public welfare, were reviewed with a focus on timelines, inter-agency coordination, and issue resolution.

Prime Minister underscored that delays in project execution come at the dual cost of escalating financial outlays and denying citizens timely access to essential services and infrastructure. He urged officials, both at the Central and State levels, to adopt a results-driven approach to translate opportunity into improving lives.

During a review of Prime Minister-Ayushman Bharat Health Infrastructure Mission (PM-ABHIM), Prime Minister urged all States to accelerate the development of health infrastructure, with a special focus on Aspirational Districts, as well as remote, tribal, and border areas. He emphasized that equitable access to quality healthcare must be ensured for the poor, marginalized, and underserved populations, and called for urgent and sustained efforts to bridge existing gaps in critical health services across these regions.

Prime Minister emphasised that PM-ABHIM provides a golden opportunity to States to strengthen their primary, tertiary and specialised health infrastructure at Block, District and State level to provide quality health care and services.

Prime Minister reviewed exemplary practices fostering Aatmanirbharta in the defence sector, undertaken by various Ministries, Departments, and States/UTs. He lauded these initiatives for their strategic significance and their potential to spur innovation across the defence ecosystem. Underscoring their broader relevance, Prime Minister cited the success of Operation Sindoor, executed with indigenous capabilities, as a powerful testament to India’s advancing self-reliance in defence sector.

Prime Minister also highlighted how the States can avail the opportunity to strengthen the ecosystem and contribute to Aatmanirbharta in defence sector.
