Hyderabad: Tibetan spiritual leader the Dalai Lama on Wednesday said he is the “longest guest” of India, who would never cause any trouble to his host.
In a virtual interactive session with GV Prasad, Co-Chairman and managing director of Dr Reddy’s Laboratories and others, Dalai Lama said India which practices “Ahimsa and Karuna” (non violence and compassion) stands as a role model for other countries.
“As I always mentioned, India is my home. I was born in Tibet. But most of my life was spent in this country… I really feel proud that I am a guest of the Indian government. I think I am the longest guest of the Indian government. But at least that guest will not create a problem,” he said. He remarked that religious harmony in India was remarkable and there is “free media.”
