Colombo: Mahasangh from Sri Lanka has wished Indian PM Narendra Modi as he turned 72 recently.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi has done so much and continues to do for Sri Lankans virtually in all aspects of socio-economic, religious, cultural, and linguistic spheres for the wellbeing of the people of the island country, Damenda Porage said in Satipatthana, a Buddhist magazine as quoted by ANI.

While extending birthday wishes to PM Modi on Saturday, Porage, editor of Satipatthana said that Modi is the versatile and saintly leader of India and it is a very significant day for Sri Lankans to refresh their cherished memories of gratefulness to him, the Indian news agency reported.

The author said that PM Modi will achieve his dream of making ‘India an educated and healthy nation, free from poverty and inhuman indignities by the year 2025’ and further added that it will, in turn, reflect favourably on Sri Lanka under his leadership.

“All Sri Lankans, especially the Maha Sangha, have a profound love and great esteem towards him for this. Sections of the Maha Sangha cherish the memories of great Dharmashoka who gifted Buddhism to Sri Lanka by sending Buddhist religious missionaries his son Arahat Mahinda Thero and daughter Sangamitta Bhikkuni have openly commented that Prime Minister Narendra Modi has to be viewed on par with Emperor Dharmashoka considering his huge and unrelenting contributions towards revitalizing Buddhism in Sri Lanka and strengthening the religious, cultural, traditional and linguistic ties. They consider him the Modern Day Dharmashoka,” the author said in Satipatthana.
