He attributed wisdom, courage, and compassion to Modi’s leadership, and expressed a desire for guidance in transforming Bhutan’s bureaucracy through SOUL.
Tobgay praised Modi for lifting 30 crore people out of poverty and positioning India on the path to becoming a ‘Viksit Bharat’ (developed India). He also highlighted Bhutan’s ambitious Gelephu Mindfulness City (GMC) project as a model of sustainability, acknowledging the significant support Modi has provided. “GMC will be the legacy of two enlightened leaders, strengthening Bhutan-India relations and creating global opportunities,” Tobgay noted.
In a bid to further strengthen ties between the two nations, Tobgay extended an open invitation to India’s business community to invest in the GMC project. The initiative is set to serve as a model for sustainable development, bringing long-term benefits to both Bhutan and India.
As the SOUL conclave unfolds, the collaboration between India and Bhutan, exemplified by the discussions on leadership and the GMC project, promises to foster stronger bilateral relations and create new opportunities for both countries.
