KATHMANDU: Prime Minister of India Narendra Modi has said neighboring countries should be treated well.

In an interaction program with Indian Police Service (IPS) officers, Modi said that relations with neighboring countries should be good.

Ironically, Prime Minister Narendra Modi reminded police officers to be kind to the neighboring countries and their citizens a day after one Nepali person went missing when the Indian Seema Suraksha Bal (SSB) personnel cut down the ‘tuin’ — a rope way — while the person was crossing the Mahakali River in Sudurpaschim of Nepal.

भूटान हो, नेपाल हो, मालदीव हो, मॉरीशस हो, हम सभी सिर्फ पड़ोसी ही नहीं हैं, बल्कि हमारी सोच और सामाजिक तानेबाने में भी बहुत समानता है।

हम सभी सुख-दुख के साथी हैं।

जब भी कोई आपदा आती है, विपत्ति आती है, तो सबसे पहले हम ही एक दूसरे की मदद करते हैं: PM @narendramodi

Narendra Modi wrote on Twitter, “Be it Bhutan, Nepal, the Maldives, or Mauritius, we are not only neighbors but also share commonness in our thinking and social etiquettes. We are all friends of happiness and sorrow. When disaster strikes, we should help each other first.”
