girl sings for foreign minister in Israel

Jerusalem: External Affairs Minister of India S. Jaishankar (S.Jaishankar) is on a five-day visit to Israel. Jaishankar and his delegation were surprised on Monday when Bollywood songs were presented to him at a program organized by the Israel Center for Persons with Disabilities.

Dina Samate, a visually impaired Indian Jewish girl from the Menashe community, welcomed External Affairs Minister Jaishankar and his delegation. This girl sang the hit songs of Shah Rukh Khan’s films ‘Kal Ho Na Ho’ and ‘Kuch-Kuch Hota Hai’. The Jewish girl was part of Dina Samte Shalva’s band. After the song ended, External Affairs Minister Jaishankar was seen clapping.

Israel’s alternate Prime Minister and Foreign Minister Yair Lapid hosted a lunch party in honor of Jaishankar at the Shalva Centre.

Will interact with youth
Shalwa Center takes care of physically challenged people and provides them opportunities for social inclusion. Dina immigrated to Israel from Manipur in 2007 and was chosen to light the torch at Israel’s official Independence Day celebrations a few years ago. Jaishankar will also visit the Israel Museum. Apart from this, he will also interact with some young members of the Cochin Jewish community.

Tribute paid to Holocaust victims
Jaishankar will also interact with some ‘think tanks’. On Monday, he paid tribute to the victims of the Holocaust in Yad Vashem, Israel. He said that the Holocaust memorial strengthens our resolve to confront evil. External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar arrived in Israel on Sunday on a 5-day visit. He expressed confidence that the Indian Jewish community in Israel would bring the two countries closer in the years to come.
