Speaking in Ayodhya, after the Bhoomi Pujan of Ram Temple, Prime Minister Modi mentioned about several nations, where Ram is revered. He said that influence of Ram is global and a grand Ram Temple in Ayodhya would showcase the rich heritage of Indian culture to the world.

PM Modi said, “The country which has the world's largest Muslim population is Indonesia. Just as our country there are several versions of Ramayana, like Kakawin Ramayana, Swarnadweep Ramayana, Yogeshwar Ramayana. Ram is still revered there today… You will find traces of Ram in Iran and China as well. In Sri Lanka, the story of Ramayana is narrated as Janakiharan and Nepal has a very special relationship with Ram and Mata Janaki.”

Similarly, Ram Katha, PM Modi said is famous in several countries and is organised even today. He also hoped that people in these nations too would welcome the construction of a grand Ram Temple.

PM Modi added that the Ram Temple will inspire the entire humanity for eternity. Understanding this, he said, the Ram Circuit is being built to connect the places visited by Bhagwaan Ram.

Prime Minister congratulates people of Chhattisgarh for special celebration of ‘Bastar Pandum’ festival
February 10, 2026

The Prime Minister, Shri Narendra Modi has congratulated the people of Chhattisgarh for special celebration of ‘Bastar Pandum’ festival, between February 7 and 9 in Chhattisgarh. During the festival, the rich culture, traditions, and tribal heritage of Bastar were showcased in a magnificent way. Shri Modi stated that such events play a vital role in preserving our cultural heritage and empowering local communities.

"Earlier, whenever the name of Bastar was mentioned, images of Maoism, violence, and backwardness in development would come to mind. But now the situation has completely changed. Today, Bastar is known not only for its development but also for the growing self-confidence of its local people. My only wish is that the coming time for this region be filled with the spirit of peace, progress, and cultural pride", Shri Modi stated.

Responding to a post by Union Minister, Shri Amit Shah on X, Shri Modi said:

"7 से 9 फरवरी के बीच छत्तीसगढ़ में ‘बस्तर पंडुम’ का विशेष आयोजन किया गया। इस उत्सव के दौरान बस्तर की समृद्ध संस्कृति, परंपरा और जनजातीय विरासत का भव्य रूप दिखा। इस प्रयास से जुड़े अपने सभी परिवारजनों को मेरी हार्दिक बधाई। ऐसे आयोजन हमारी सांस्कृतिक विरासत को संरक्षित करने और स्थानीय समुदायों को सशक्त बनाने में अहम भूमिका निभाते हैं।

पहले जब बस्तर का नाम लिया जाता था तो माओवाद, हिंसा और विकास में पिछड़ेपन की छवि उभरती थी। लेकिन अब हालात बिल्कुल बदल चुके हैं। आज बस्तर विकास के साथ-साथ स्थानीय लोगों के बढ़ते आत्मविश्वास के लिए जाना जाता है। मेरी यही कामना है कि यहां का आने वाला समय शांति, प्रगति और सांस्कृतिक गौरव की भावना से परिपूर्ण हो।"
