PM Modi: Trip to deepen 'time-honoured linkages' with Nepal

莫迪总理：此行将深化与尼泊尔“历史悠久的联系”

NEW DELHI: Describing ties with Nepal as unparalleled, PM Modi, ahead of his visit to Lumbini on Monday, said civilisational and people-to-people contacts between India and Nepal formed the "enduring edifice" of the close relationship and that his visit is intended to celebrate and further deepen these "time-honoured linkages that have been fostered through centuries and recorded in our long history of inter-mingling".

新德里：在周一访问蓝毗尼之前，莫迪总理称与尼泊尔的关系是无与伦比的，印度和尼泊尔之间的文明和人文交流，构成了两国紧密关系的“持久大厦”，他的访问旨在庆祝和进一步深化这些“历史悠久的联系，这些联系是几个世纪以来形成的，记录在我们悠久的相互交融的历史中”。

Modi said on Sunday that he was also looking forward to meeting PM Sher Bahadur Deuba again after their recent meeting and that the two would continue to build on their "shared understanding" to expand cooperation in multiple areas, including in hydro-power, development and connectivity. A bilateral meeting between the two PMs is also scheduled to undertake a comprehensive review of recent agreements. MoUs on cooperation in cultural and educational sectors are expected to be exchanged between the two countries after the bilateral meeting, government sources said.

莫迪周日表示，他也期待在最近的会晤后再次会晤德乌帕总理，两国将继续在“共同理解”的基础上扩大在多个领域的合作，包括水电、发展和互联互通。两国总理还计划举行双边会议，对最近达成的协议进行全面审查。政府消息人士表示，两国将在会谈结束后签署文化、教育领域合作的谅解备忘录。

In his previous visits to Nepal as PM of India, said a source, Modi has visited places of religious significance that binds together people of India and Nepal, like the Pashupatinath temple in Kathmandu, Janaki Mata temple in Janakpur Dham and Muktinath temple in Mustang.

一位消息人士称，之前一总理身份访问尼泊尔时，莫迪访问了一些具有宗教意义的地方，这些地方将印度和尼泊尔人民联系在一起，比如加德满都的烧尸庙、贾纳克普尔达姆的Janaki Mata庙和穆斯坦的Muktinath庙。

Modi will also attend the 2566th Buddha Jayanti celebrations and address a large gathering of people from Nepal and India, including Buddhist scholars and monks. According to India, the visit is aimed at promoting further the close, comprehensive and multi-dimensional bilateral ties founded on the age-old connection of history, culture, tradition and religion.

莫迪还将参加第2566届佛祖诞辰日庆祝活动，并向来自尼泊尔和印度的群众发表讲话，其中包括佛教学者和僧侣。印度表示，此次访问的目的是进一步促进建立在历史、文化、传统和宗教悠久联系基础上的密切、全面和多维双边关系。

India and Modi must force Nepal to become & remain Hindu rashtra again as it's the only Hindu country.

印度和莫迪应当迫使尼泊尔再次成为并保持为印度教国家，因为印度是唯一的印度教国家。

India should explore if Nepal can be asked to join Indian Union. China claimed Tib is theirs. No other country can stop Nepal joining India. It will be the first step India can take to re-gain Himalayas.

印度应该探索是否可以邀请尼泊尔加入印度联盟。没有其他国家能阻止尼泊尔加入印度。这将是印度重新夺回喜马拉雅山的第一步。

Indian leadership is fool. They are chinese funded ruling Nepal. They will use India funds and support china when it comes to border conflict situations. Better teach them how to behave first.

印度领导人是傻瓜。他们是中国资助的，统治尼泊尔。他们使用印度的资金，但在边界冲突问题上，他们支持中国。最好先教他们规矩点。

You are right,

你说的对

Hope he doesn't give free AID to Nepal like Sri Lanka from tax payers money which can never be recovered back. Indians are already facing the effects of high inflation and heat wave and need support first.

希望他不要用纳税人的钱给尼泊尔提供免费援助，像援助斯里兰卡一样，这星期是收不回来的。印度人已经面临高通胀和热浪的影响，首先需要支持。

Look at what US in its short history did. It helped many nations Without even thinking they will get back what they gave away. It is a cheap investment to protect the nation.

看看美国在其短暂的历史中做了什么，它帮助了许多国家，甚至没有想过回报。这是保护国家的投资。

我认为所有这些国家都获得了与印度和中国建立友好关系的经验，现在他们应该理性思考，选择他们认为对自己更好的国家
