Dubai [UAE], July 14 (ANI): Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Mohan Yadav emphasised that the Indian community abroad has been instrumental in spreading India's influence globally, like 'sugar in milk; they mix and give sweetness.'
In an interactive session with the Madhya Pradesh diaspora, CM Yadav said that the 'Indian community has always been like sugar in milk; they mix and give sweetness.'
'Our culture teaches us to stay connected to our roots wherever we are. This is what PM Modi calls 'Virasat Se Vikas,' he added.
Further, he, CM Yadav, expressed pride in PM Modi's efforts to address issues faced by Indians both within the country and abroad.
'Today, there is India's wave, and it is because of PM Modi... No matter where one wants to reach in the world, they have to go via India... Everyone tries to take a photo with PM Modi. It fills us with pride,' he said.
'We have seen under his leadership that he solves issues for his people, not just within the country but also for the Indian community abroad,' he added.
Highlighting the government's efforts to promote business and investment in Madhya Pradesh, Yadav affirmed that, 'Our government has made transparent policies to promote business... If you want to open a medical college, we will provide you with the land for just 1 rupee, and then you can run the medical college.'
'Our policy is not just on paper; it is also getting implemented... We conducted an investors' summit in the country, resulting in an investment of Rs 30 lakh crore,' he added.
Upon Madhya Pradesh CM's visit to Dubai, the Consul General of India in Dubai, Satish Kumar Sivan, highlighted the significance of the Indian community in the UAE, noting that 44 lakh Indians call the country their second home.
'44 lakh Indians call the UAE their second home. A good representation of that is here today, welcoming you, honouring you, and waiting to listen to you,' he said.
'Madhya Pradesh is not only the heart of India, but it seems to be the heart of the Indian diaspora in the UAE as well... Looking at the reception he has got today, I am sure he will make it a point to come back to Dubai and spend much more time with the Indian diaspora,' he added.
Earlier, he visited the BAPS Hindu Mandir in Abu Dhabi during the auspicious celebrations of Guru Purnima.
He was deeply touched and spiritually uplifted by the serene aura, stunning architecture, and the devotion-filled atmosphere of the Mandir.
Offering prayers, he was overjoyed to see the sacred soil from Jabalpur - the birthplace of Mahant Swami Maharaj, the creator of the BAPS Hindu Mandir in Abu Dhabi.
He also praised the Mandir as a global symbol of spiritual harmony, cultural unity, and timeless values.

Homebuyers had secured extensive loans from banks to fund their tribunal noted that negligence by the ED has risked public money in the form of home loans from government and private banks to the tune of approximately Rs 30 crore. Despite due diligence by the company, the ED did not inform the director about the attachment tribunal also rapped the ED over its failure to disclose the attachment status during the land purchase diligence, stating, "At this belated stage, when the land is already sold, developed and constructed into flats, and thereafter, the said flats were sold to a large number of owners, the situation cannot be reversed at this stage. Otherwise, it will prejudice the interests of the appellants and buyers of the flats".The tribunal underscored that both the company and the banks had conducted thorough verification processes, and during the intervening period no steps were taken by respondent ED to restrain the development and sale of flats to the counsel for the appellants, Faraz Khan, welcomed the ruling, and said that the decision draws a constitutional boundary by punishing launderers and not honest citizens."Due diligence is not a game of hide and seek. When the State attaches property, it must shout it from the rooftops—register it, publicise it, mark it. The ED's failure to follow this process almost destroyed the lives of 126 families," Khan said."Freezing and de-freezing crores of suspected laundered funds while concealing attachment from an innocent purchaser is not just carelessness, it is institutional failure. This ruling sets a template for all such cases where third parties unknowingly buy into attached properties. It's a victory for every ordinary home-buyer," Khan added.- EndsTune InMust Watch
