The Morning Standard
|March 23, 2024
PRIME Minister Narendra Modi was on Friday conferred Bhutan's highest civilian award, the 'Order of the Druk Gyalpo', the first foreign leader to receive the honour.
Bhutan's King Jigme Khesar Namgyel Wangchuck honoured Modi with the award in a public ceremony at Tendrelthang, Thimpu. "Honoured to be conferred with Order of Druk Gyalpo' by Bhutan. I dedicate it to 140 crore Indians," Modi said.
The award was announced during Bhutan's 114th National Day celebrations held at Tendrelthang in December 2021.
"This award presented to PM Modi is a symbol of our gratitude to India, for having always been our true friend and ally, for our close unity and friendship. PM Modi's Neighbourhood First policy has strengthened South Asia, and paved the way for collective progress," the King of Bhutan said.
