New Delhi (India) June 28: The ‘Guardian of the Blue Horizon’, Seychelles’ highest distinction for leadership in environmental conservation and sustainable development was conferred on Prime Minister Narendra Modi for his leadership and steadfast commitment towards climate action, green growth and sustainable development. 

The honour recognised PM Modi’s deep engagement towards sustainable development and climate change mitigation. It paid tribute to his support to climate resilience, global cooperation and the sustainable use of oceans, reflecting the strengthening relationship between India and Seychelles.

He said, "Humbled to receive the 'Guardian of the Blue Horizon' award. I humbly accept this title with honor and dedicate it to all other countries that are struggling against the challenges of climate change and that consider the protection of the environment their responsibility toward future generations.”

"This is an urgent challenge that we need to overcome together. The sun, in its way, stands ready to do whatever is necessary to make the world greener and more sustainable. This is reflected in our various domestic policies, with the motto of the LiFe Mission (a vision for a sustainable future) and global efforts such as the International Solar Alliance, the Coalition for Disaster Resilient Infrastructure, and others," he added.

Shared Vision Strengthens Bilateral Cooperation

The Seychelles President recalled the 50th year of diplomatic relations between the two nations and reiterated the shared geography, history and collective approach towards the Indian Ocean region would anchor the two countries' relations. 

This would contribute to the implementation of the Joint Vision for Sustainability, Economic Growth and Security through Enhanced Linkages which the two leaders adopted early this year and was aimed to act as a framework for sectoral co-operation. 

PM to Attend Golden Jubilee Celebrations

PM Modi will join the Golden Jubilee National Day celebrations of Seychelles as the Guest of Honour on Monday. The two countries, which share historical and people to people ties, would also use the visit for PM Modi's address to the Seychelles National Assembly as well as interaction with the members of the Indian diaspora. Seychelles, being a major maritime neighbour in the Indian Ocean region, represents a strategic component in India's Vision MAHASAGAR.
