Indian Union Minister Kiren Rijiju along with a 25-member delegation arrived Mongolia on Sunday with four Holy Relics of Lord Buddha and said that the move will give a message of peace to the world.

Rijiju is staying in Mongolia for an 11-day exposition of the relics as part of celebrations of the Mongolian Buddh Purnima falling on 14 June.

The Holy Relics is displayed at the Batsagaan Temple within the premises of Gandan Monastery.

The Holy Buddha Relics, currently housed in the National Museum, are known as the ‘Kapilvastu Relics’ since they are from a site in Bihar first discovered in 1898 which is believed to be the ancient city of Kapilvastu.
