India-UAE relations

Prior to Prime Minister Narendra Modi inaugurating the temple, Sadhu Brahmaviharidas recognized the vital role that the friendship and generosity of UAE leaders played. He also emphasized the close friendship between the Prime Minister of India and the rulers of the United Arab Emirates while expressing his sincere gratitude to them.

“Well, symbolism is clear, and I don’t hide it. For a ruler, His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, to have space in his heart to allow the first traditional stone temple in this part of the region in the history of humanity, I think all of us need to join our hands and applaud the rulers and the leaders of this nation,” he said addressing a press conference in Abu Dhabi.

He added that this friendship, rooted in trust, transparency, and truth, has been instrumental in bringing this architectural marvel to life.

“So, the BAPS Hindu Mandir has been built because of the generosity of the rulers. And I also say because of the friendship that our honourable Prime Minister has been able to generate with the rulers, the leaders, through the trade, through the great events that have happened. It’s because of trust, transparency, and truth that this entire Mandir has been made,” he said.
