Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who inaugurated the BAPS Mandir today in Abu Dhabi, said that this temple will be a symbol of communal harmony and unity of the world.
PM Modi further said, “The Government of UAE has not only won the hearts of Indians living in UAE, but also of all 140 crore Indians.” he added.
