He said that the Prince has lead with great humility and has been a shining example of goodness for humanity.
The President added that India deeply appreciates the development initiatives Prince Aga Khan is supporting in India and other parts of the world.
He stated that the programmes of AKDN and India's flagship initiatives complement each other, be it Swacch Bharat, Skill India, heritage conservation, women empowerment or income generation in rural areas.
