Even the so-called developed nations across the world are afflicted by this storm and find themselves helpless before it. However, over the past decades, Bharat has gradually carved out a place for itself in the world through its own strength and sound policies,” he shared.
On top of that, He cited France , Albania, Nepaland Bangladesh as examples of foreign interference that tried to push regime change as a means of finding solutions.
“Look at what has been happening in France, Albania, Nepal and Bangladesh in recent days. They want to make similar attempts in Bharat as well. But a change of regime does not change anything. Look at the situation there,” he shared.
