Replica of Bamiyan Buddha Statue Proposed in Nagpur

Marking 25 years since the destruction of the Bamiyan Buddha statues in Afghanistan, the Chief Minister proposed to Governor Miyazaki the installation of a replica of the Bamiyan Buddhas in Nagpur. He said Nagpur holds historical significance as the place where Dr. Ambedkar embraced Buddhism, leading to a revival movement. The initiative would send a global message of peace and serve as a symbol of India–Japan friendship.

Expressing gratitude to the visiting delegation in Japanese, the Chief Minister said, “Arigato Gozaimasu.”
