PM Modi greets Jews on Hanukkah
While in one tweet, Modi wrote in Hebrew, in the other one posted in English, the Prime Minister said: "Wishing my Jewish friends a Happy Hanukkah! May this Festival of Lights and the festive season ring in peace, hope and well-being for all."
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu retweeted Modi's tweet on his official Twitter account 'Pm of Israel'.
Hanukkah is an eight-day Jewish holiday commemorating the rededication of the Holy Temple in Jerusalem at the time of the Maccabean Revolt against the Seleucid Empire of the 2nd century BC.
