In his address, Ambekar emphasized the deep-rooted cultural ties between Bharat and Kyrgyzstan, highlighting the Mahabharata’s influence on Indian culture and the pivotal role of Manas in Kyrgyz heritage. He praised the efforts of Professors Pande and Dwivedi in translating Manas into Hindi and called the centre a notable step forward.<\/p>\n
Dr. Punit Gaur noted that the centre will foster educational and cultural cooperation between India and Kyrgyzstan, aligning with Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s vision for a Civilizational Dialogue Forum. The centre will focus on various aspects, including comparing civilizational studies and promoting humanitarian diplomacy.<\/p>\n
