He said that the above verse means that there should be welfare of all, peace to all, fulfillment to all and well being for all.
The PM said that in the coming days, many programs related to G-20 will be organized in different parts of the country.
As during this period, people from different parts of the world will get a chance to visit your states, he asked Indians to bring the diverse and distinctive colors of their culture to the world.
He also reminded that the people coming to the G-20, even if they come now as delegates, are tourists of the future.
