New Delhi/IBNS: Prime Minister Narendra Modi paid tributes to Bhagwan Mahavir on the occasion of Mahavir Jayanti on Thursday.

Modi said that Bhagwan Mahavir always emphasised on non-violence, truth and compassion, and that his ideals give strength to countless people all around the world.

The Prime Minister also noted that last year, the government conferred the status of Classical Language on Prakrit, a decision which received a lot of appreciation.

In a post on X, the Prime Minister said, "We all bow to Bhagwan Mahavir, who always emphasised on non-violence, truth and compassion. His ideals give strength to countless people all around the world. His teachings have been beautifully preserved and popularised by the Jain community. Inspired by Bhagwan Mahavir, they have excelled in different walks of life and contributed to societal well-being.
