India and Mongolia share a unique partnership which is not of convenience but a relationship of “trust and spiritual strength”, External Affairs Minister Sushma Swaraj said. Sushma in her keynote speech at 100th birth anniversary of the Venerable 19th Kushok Bakula Rinpoche, said the spiritual connection through Buddhism provides strength to relationship between two countries.

Bakula was not only an eminent Buddhist leader, but also the longest serving Ambassador of India to Mongolia. Bakula served as India’s Ambassador to Mongolia from 1990-2000.
