Udupi, Jan 3: P B Acharya, Governor of Nagaland, has hailed Vishwesha Tirtha Swami of Paryaya Pejawar Mutt and Dharmasthala Dharmadhakari D Veerendra Heggade as the icons of the country.

He was speaking as the chief guest at a function to felicitate Heggade on his completing 50 years as Dharmadhakari of Sri Kshetra Dharmasthala at Rajangana here. The Rashtra Ratna Prashasti was conferred on Dr Heggade.

The governor also urged the two religious leaders to start their projects in the North-East,” Mr. Acharya said. “Strengthening the eight States of North-East India was the need of the hour. People from the mainland should make an effort to visit these eight States and establish their projects there,” he added.

“The North-East was abundant in natural resources. There were nearly 300 insurgent groups operating in the North-East. These States also had international borders. They either bordered China, Mynamar or Bangladesh. The insurgents did not feel that they were part of the country. Hence, it was up to the people of the mainland to reach out to them,” he said.

In his felicitation speech, the Pejawar seer said that there was no field of welfare which Dr Heggade had not touched. He had made his contribution to several fields, including healthcare, education, Ayurveda, Yoga, and also promoting self-employment. “I hope he will get the Bharat Ratna,” he said.

In his speech, Dr. Heggade said that it was the activities of the Pejawar seer which had inspired him to take up welfare schemes.

New Delhi, Apr 26: The Centre will bring back the Indian citizens stranded abroad due to the ban on arrival of international passenger aircraft, only if the respective states they belong to agree to allow them to come back home and make necessary arrangements to quarantine them after their return.

The Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) has started consultations with the State Governments on bringing back the Indians, who got stranded in the United States, United Kingdom, France, Italy, Canada and many other foreign countries due to the ban on arrival of international passenger aircraft to any airport in the country. The decision on facilitating their return to the country would be taken after getting feedback on preparedness of the States and the Union Territory to receive them following all required health precautions, Cabinet Secretary Rajiv Gauba said.

Gauba on Saturday had a video-conference with the Chief Secretaries of all States and Union Territories to review the implementation of the restrictions on travel and transport as well as the lockdown imposed across the country to contain the COVID-19 pandemic.

Though the Government earlier either evacuated or facilitated the return of nearly 28000 Indians from a number of foreign countries affected by the COVID-19 pandemic, it almost stopped doing so after the ban on arrival of international passenger aircraft was enforced on March 23 in the wake of the spurt in the number of COVID-19 cases in India.

Thousands of Indian students, tourists, professionals and others are stranded around the world, including in the countries, where respective governments had imposed lockdowns to contain the pandemic. They have been desperately requesting the government on social media to evacuate them.
