Mumbai, May 11 (DC): Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Friday launched Ayodhya-Janakpur bus in Nepal.

The Indo-Nepal bus service from Nepal's Janakpur to Uttar Pradesh's Ayodhya was flagged off by Prime Minister Narendra Modi and his Nepalese counterpart K P Sharma Oli.

The bus route will connect Janakpur, Goddess Sita's birthplace, to Ayodhya.

Addressing the people in Nepal, Prime Minister Narendra Modi said, "I am glad to be here in Janakpur. I am here to pay respects to King Janak and Mata Janaki. I thank the PM of Nepal Shri Oli for accompanying me during this visit to Janakpur."

PM Modi arrived in Nepal on Friday for a two-day state visit at the invitation of Nepalese Prime Minister K P Sharma Oli.

The Prime Minister said that his welcome in Nepal shows the affection the people of the country towards India.

"India and Nepal will work towards building 'Ramayan' circuit between both the countries. This will act as foundation for strong people to people contact between the two nations," PM Modi said.

After reaching Janakpur on Friday morning, Prime Minister Narendra Modi went straight to the Janaki Temple and offered prayers.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi was received by Nepal's Defence Minister Ishwar Pokhrel and Province 2 Chief Minister Lalbabu Raut at the airport.

Later today, PM Modi will travel to Kathmandu where he will meet Nepalese President Bidya Devi Bhandari and Vice President Nanda Bahadur Pun.

    Prime Minister Narendra Modi is a divisive figure not only in India but in Nepal too. While the government of the country is making all-out efforts to amuse Modi during his two-day "religious and cultural" visit, people in Kathmandu and other parts of the country are up against him.

    Although Nepali media has so far refrained from reporting on the protests, the social media in Nepal is abuzz with #BlocakadewasCrimeMrModi and #Modinotwelcome trends since May 10. The protesters want PM Modi to apologise for the economic blockade of 2015-16.

    Meanwhile, the protest has taken on many colours. A group of students in Kathmandu's Tribhuvan University are sitting on a 36-hour hunger strike, while others are calling for a blackout in the city by switching off the lights at 8pm, to highlight how Kathmandu looked during the blockade.

    A release by the protesting students says, "After the devastating earthquake of 2015 in which more than 9,000 people died, the people were expecting help from India, instead India gave them a three-month brutal blockade. We want to make it clear to the Indian prime minister that we have not forgotten the blockade." Similarly, some political parties, including Nepal Communist Party (Revolutionary Maoist), are organising protest marches across Kathmandu against the visit.

    Modi's current Nepal visit looks a desperate attempt to keep at least one south Asian neighbour close. But by choosing "shared religion" as a starter, he has done more harm than good. Instead of winning him friends in Nepal, it will further the divided between India and Nepal in the long run.
