Bikaner: External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar emphasised the significance of the evacuation operations conducted to ensure the safety of Indian citizens worldwide. In his remarks, EAM Jaishankar reiterated Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s commitment, “Modi Ki Guarantee,” extends beyond India’s borders.
Speaking at a press conference here on Wednesday EAM Jaishankar said, “In my capacity as the Minister of External Affairs, I can affirm that Modi Ki Guarantee also works beyond our borders, wherever our citizens or even our compatriots find themselves trapped.”
“People who go abroad for employment or as tourists, or students going for studies, they also have full confidence that Modi’s India, as it is today, will always stand by them. If any problem arises anywhere, we are there for them,” the EAM added.
The External Affairs Minister highlighted India’s stance on buying oil from Russia, noting that petrol prices were lower because New Delhi had courage to purchase oil from Moscow.
Jaishankar stated, “When we talk about Ukraine, if today the price of petrol is lower, it’s because we had the courage to buy oil from Russia. If there are other matters related to security or the respect earned by Modi ji during the COVID times, it’s because of his diplomacy that Indians stranded in the Gulf region returned home safely.”
Earlier this month, during an interaction in Gujarat, the EAM had said that PM Modi gave clear instructions to keep the interest of Indian consumers in priority despite external pressure against purchasing Russian oil. He also said that India kept the interest of its consumers on priority while purchasing Russian oil, despite external pressure.
