4 Vice President's Secretariat Shri M. Venkaiah Naidu attended a Christmas celebration event organized by the Catholic Bishops' Conference of India (CBCI). Christmas reminds us all to live up to the ideals and values preached and practiced by Jesus Christ Christmas is the festival of love, joy and sharing. It is a time to renew our commitment To love and serve our families, communities and society To be just and transparent in our dealings To promote social and economic inclusion of all To promote lasting peace between people of different religions and cultures To promote sustainable development

5 The Vice-President said every individual must revere his/her mother, mother tongue, birth place and motherland. Shri Venkaiah Naidu said it is the duty of every Indian to preserve and protect our culture. Let me once again clarify that religion is personal, while culture is a way of life, he added.

6 The Vice-President of India, Shri M. Venkaiah Naidu held talks with the visiting Second Vice President of the Islamic Republic of Afghanistan, Mohammad Sarwar Danish here today. Vice President said that India has commenced supply of 1,70,000 tonnes of Wheat grain assistance to Afghanistan via the Chabahar Port in Iran, since the recent inauguration of the first phase of the strategic port with Indian investment and funding. More than 50 flights have been undertaken from Afghanistan to India since the launch of the Air Freight Corridor in June India has provided assistance to Afghanistan to the tune of US$ 2 billion till last year. In September 2016, our Prime Minister announced an additional assistance of US$1 billion for the people of Afghanistan.

7 All these led to the New Development Partnership in September 2017, he added. Under this Partnership, already 116 High Impact Community Development Projects have been identified in 31 of 34 provinces in Afghanistan and several other Medium to Large New Projects announced. He said Afghanistan can truly emerge as an important Trade, Investment and Connectivity junction for the entire Asian and Eurasian Region. Pointing out that last year was the most violent year since 2001 for Afghanistan with over 10,000 causalities of whom 25% are civilians, Shri Venkaiah Naidu said we must work for setting up of an international verification mechanism for action taken in fighting terrorism and elimination of safe havens and other support, he added.
