Digital Desk: Rajnath Singh, the first Indian Defence Minister to visit Mongolia, was gifted a beautiful horse by the country's president on Wednesday, seven years after Prime Minister Narendra Modi received a similar gift from the country's leadership.
"A special gift from our special friends in Mongolia. I have named this magnificent beauty, ‘Tejas’. Thank you, President Khurelsukh. Thank you Mongolia," Singh tweeted on Wednesday, along with pictures of the white horse.
On Tuesday, Singh met with Mongolian President Ukhnaagiin Khurelsukh to review strategic bilateral ties.
"Excellent meeting with the President of Mongolia, H.E. U. Khurelsukh in Ulaanbaatar. Recalled my last meeting with him in 2018, when he was the Prime Minister of the country. We are fully committed to further deepening our multifaceted Strategic Partnership with Mongolia," he said in a tweet.
On his historic visit to Mongolia in 2015, Prime Minister Modi received a special gift — a brown racehorse from his then-Mongolian counterpart, Chimed Saikhanbileg.
With the purpose of strengthening India's strategic and defence ties with Mongolia and Japan against the backdrop of a shifting regional security landscape and geopolitical unrest, Defense Minister Singh is travelling to both nations starting on Monday for a five-day trip.
Singh's visit to Mongolia from September 5 to 7 is the first-ever tour to the East Asian country by an Indian defence minister.
