PM Modi & Odisha CM In UAE Today; Naveen Shares Video From Sheikh Zayed Mosque [Watch]

Bhubaneswar: While Odisha Chief Minister Naveen Patnaik is in UAE for the last leg of his 10-day foreign trip, Prime Minister Narendra Modi is scheduled to arrive in Abu Dhabi on Tuesday after attending the G-7 summit in Germany to pay his personal condolences on the passing away of Sheikh Khalifa bin Zayed Al Nahyan, the former UAE President and Abu Dhabi Ruler.

Naveen’s itinerary includes Odisha Investors’ Meet 2022, his first overseas event since becoming the chief minister in 2000, on Wednesday when he will showcase Odisha as an industry-friendly destination. He will also interact with non-resident Odias living in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region.

Naveen, who travelled to Dubai from Rome late on Sunday, has been joined by Odisha’s food supplies and consumer welfare minister Atanu Sabyasachi Nayak and senior BJD MLA Debi Prasad Mishra.

Notably, Debi Mishra led a State delegation to Abu Dhabi, UAE, in April 2016 to attract investments.

On Monday, Naveen visited the Sheikh Zayed Mosque in Abu Dhabi. “The marble dome of Sheikh Zayed Mosque, Abu Dhabi is an epitome of magnificence with intricate inlay work inspired by Moghul architecture. I am told, the artisans and the marbles also came from Makrana village of Rajasthan. A bit of India, everywhere,” the Chief Minister tweeted and posted a video of the visit.
