Abstract

The article focuses on German Chancellor Friedrich Merz's first visit to India, where he emphasized the enduring legacy of Mahatma Gandhi as a unifying force between India and Germany. During his visit, Merz and Prime Minister Narendra Modi paid homage at the Sabarmati Ashram, a significant site in India's freedom struggle, and participated in the International Kite Festival-2026 in Ahmedabad. The festival, which attracts kite flyers from around the world, aims to promote Gujarat's cultural tourism and is expected to draw over five lakh visitors this year. The event coincides with the celebration of 'Uttarayan,' marking the sun's northward journey. [Extracted from the article]
