Defence Minister Rajnath Singh, who was on a three-day visit to Mongolia, received a unique present from the East Asian country’s president.
Mongolia’s president Ukhnaagiin Khurelsukh gifted Singh a majestic horse, seven years after Prime Minister Narendra Modi received a similar gift from the leadership of this country.
Singh, who is the first Indian Defence Minister to visit Mongolia, named the majestic beast ‘Tejas’, after the Indian fighter aircraft.
In 2015, Prime Minister Modi received a special gift a brown racehorse from his then Mongolian counterpart Chimed Saikhanbileg during his historic visit to this country. The horse was named Kanthaka’.
Mongolia is known as the land of the horse, according to the American Museum of Natural History (AMNH).
