At the centenary celebrations of Jain spiritual leader Acharya Vidyanand Ji Maharaj in New Delhi, Prime Minister Modi highlighted India’s global legacy of non‑violence, crediting saints and acharyas for its immortal philosophy. He issued a veiled warning to Pakistan, alluding to “those who tease us” and noting India would not tolerate meddling, referencing Operation Sindoor the nation’s military response after the Pahalgam terror attack blamed on Pakistan-backed militants. Modi praised government welfare schemes like PM Awas, Jal Jivan and Ayushman Bharat as rooted in service. He also hailed the elevation of Prakrit to classical-language status and announced a drive to digitize Jain manuscripts, as part of eradicating a “slavery mindset.”(PC: NDTV)
