Modi's Israel visit - A pictorial story.

-

Received at Airport by Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu

India-Israel ties are a marriage made in heaven, practised on earth.

Mr. Netanyahu while according a warm welcome to Mr. Modi said the India-Israel relationship was a marriage made in heaven, but implemented on Earth. Interestingly, this is not the first time Mr. Netanyahu has used this phrase to describe Israel’s relationship with another country — in March 2015, he had described the Israel-China relationship in similar terms.









With Israeli President

“'I' for 'I' is India for Israel, and 'I' with 'I' is India with Israel”

The Israeli PM, in his welcoming speech, summed up the formula for success as “ I2 T2”. This, he said, is equal to “Indian talent times Israeli technology. It equals Israel-India's ties for tomorrow.”
Later, when Mr.Modi met the Israeli President Reuven Rivlin, he, in what seems to be a response to the previous comment, said that 'I' for 'I' is India for Israel, and 'I' with 'I' is India with Israel. Indians, he added, feel that 'Israel' means 'Israel is a real friend'




OCI cards for Indians in Israel, direct flights to Tel Aviv

Addressing the Indian community in Israel, Mr. Modi promised to issue Overseas Citizen of India cards to the Indian origin persons who have done compulsory military service in Israel. The card helps ease the difficulty of finding employment opportunities and other facilities for Indian-origin foreign citizens in India. He also promised to set up direct flights from Delhi and Mumbai to Tel Aviv.

Meets younf Moshe, whose parents had fallen victim in the 2008 terrorist attack on Nariman House, Mumbai.

"You can visit India anytime. Will give you and your family long-term visa"

On the second day of his visit to Israel, the PM met Moshe Holtzberg, the 11-year-old whose parents were killed in the 26/11 Mumbai attacks. Mr. Holtzberg, who escaped the terrorist attack with the help of his nanny, now lives with his grandparents in Israel. Mr. Modi has offered him and his family long term visas to visit India “anytime”.

“Make with India"

In his speech welcoming the Indian PM Modi, Mr.Netanyahu said that in India-Israel relations, even sky isn’t the limit because the space programmes of the two countries are working together to achieve greater heights. “On this visit,” he said, “you're making India Initiative meets my "Make with India" policy”.

A rare and priceless gift from the Israeli Prime Minister

The Vanjari caste

The Vanjari caste Nowadays, it has become fashion to tomtom your backwardness if you are in politics, govt sector or education. For obvious reasons. We find many political leaders proclaiming that they are backward - because that is what sells now. Hence, I decided to study the origins of various castes to find out who is more backward and how. Today, I give information about the Vanjari caste. The Vanjari is a community in India; they live spread throughout the country but have a sizeable population in the state of Maharashtra. They are also present in parts of Andhra Pradesh particularly in the districts of Telangana region. A Vanjari or a trader seems to be an occupational description, as it is etymologically identical with Vanijya which means trade or commerce. These tribes were in the past engaged in carrying grain and supplies for armies, before the time of cart-roads and railways. Thane Vanjaries are settled in 24 Villages in Thane District Viz. Bandhan, Boi...
