At the Dharma-Dhamma Conference 2025, organized by India Foundation and Dr. Babasaheb Ambedkar Open University, Dr. Supachai Verapuchong, Secretary-General of the Bodihgaya Vijjalaya 980 Institute, declared the Institute’s commitment to advancing Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s vision from an “Asian Century” towards a “Dhamma Century,” highlighting the role of Buddhism in shaping global peace and harmony.
