Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Monday expressed deep sorrow over the demise of Pope Francis, hailing him as a symbol of compassion, humility, and spiritual courage.


In a heartfelt message posted on X (formerly Twitter), PM Modi extended his condolences to the global Catholic community, praising the Pope’s unwavering service to the poor and his enduring affection for India.

“Deeply pained by the passing of Pope Francis. In this hour of grief and remembrance, my heartfelt condolences to the global Catholic community,” Modi wrote.

“Pope Francis will always be remembered as a beacon of compassion, humility and spiritual courage by millions across the world.”

Reflecting on the Pope’s life and legacy, the Prime Minister highlighted how Francis dedicated himself from a young age to the ideals of Lord Christ, walking the path of service and love.

“He diligently served the poor and downtrodden. For those who were suffering, he ignited a spirit of hope.”

Modi also reminisced about his own meetings with the pontiff, calling them inspiring and memorable.

“I fondly recall my meetings with him and was greatly inspired by his commitment to inclusive and all-round development.”

He concluded the tribute by acknowledging the Pope’s warm regard for India and praying for his peaceful rest.

“His affection for the people of India will always be cherished. May his soul find eternal peace in God’s embrace.”

The Indian Prime Minister’s message resonated with people across faiths, marking a moment of interfaith solidarity in mourning a global religious icon. Pope Francis, who passed away at age 88, led the Catholic Church for 12 years and was widely respected for his work among the marginalized and his push for global inclusiveness.
