Bhutan National Assembly Speaker Wangchuk Namgyel met with Maharashtra Governor Bhagat Singh Koshyari to discuss enhancement of tourism ties.
Namgyel said Maharashtra had many sites related to Buddhism, just like Bhutan. Stating that Maharashtra is home to the famous Ajanta and Ellora caves, a renowned Buddhist site, he added that tourism cooperation with Maharashtra will help people from both sides to visit each other.
For the first time, India is hosting 108 Buddhist pilgrims from South Korea as the two countries celebrate 50 years of diplomatic ties. The pilgrimage, organized by the Sangwol Society, will cover over 1,100 km and touch Buddhist pilgrimage sites in Uttar Pradesh and Bihar., #
