US singer Mary Millben praised Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Christmas for honoring Jesus Christ at a Christmas event. In a post on X, she thanked PM Modi for his words at the Catholic Bishops’ Conference of India (CBCI) celebration, saying, “Jesus Christ is the greatest gift and example of love.” She wished a Merry Christmas to all in India.
PM Modi responded, highlighting the importance of Jesus Christ’s teachings on love, harmony, and brotherhood, urging everyone to strengthen this spirit.
Mary Millben, who met PM Modi during his June 2023 US visit, performed the Indian national anthem at the Ronald Reagan Building in Washington, D.C., and received media attention when she touched PM Modi’s feet for blessings. She has frequently praised PM Modi, commending his leadership on issues like the Citizenship (Amendment) Act, women’s empowerment, and India’s handling of the Manipur situation.
At the Christmas event on Monday, PM Modi condemned violence in society and emphasized that Christ’s teachings promote love and unity. He also condemned the recent terror attack at Germany’s Magdeburg Christmas Market.
