“This scene is extraordinary. Ever since I landed here, you have not got tired, you have come here from different parts of Poland, and you speak a different language but you are connected with the spirit of Indianness. I thank you for the grand welcome,” the Prime Minister said.”Since last week, the Indian media is only talking about you. There is also a headline that it’s the first time in 45 years that an Indian PM is visiting Poland. A lot of good things are there in my fate. I visited Austria recently. There too, an Indian PM was visiting after four decades. Situations have changed now. For decades, India’s policy was to maintain distance from all countries. Today, India’s policy is to maintain close ties with all countries,” he said.”For India, it’s not about geopolitics, it’s about values. This is our legacy that fills every Indian with pride. Poland has been witness to India’s ‘Sanatan bhava’. During World War II when Poland was going through a tough time and was seeking refuge, Jam Saheb came forward. He constructed a special camp for Polish women and children,” Prime Minister Modi said.”Two decades ago, when an earthquake hit Gujarat, Jamnagar was affected badly. Poland was among the first countries to extend help,” he added.”Today, Indians are known for their efforts, excellence and empathy. Wherever we go, we are seen putting in a lot of effort. In the whole world, we are known for excellence, be it it sector or our doctors, they are known for excellence. We are known for empathy as well, we are the first to extend help to countries going through crises.”
