It is an established fact that Bhagwat Gita is one of the most significant and culturally prominent Hindu mythologies in the Indian community. This has now gained more traction in international market with the latest development that happened in the Canadian Parliament.

Anita Anand, a Canadian politician of Indian origin, has been appointed as Canada’s new Foreign Minister. Born to Indian parents who migrated from Punjab, Anand has had a distinguished career in law and politics. She previously served as Canada’s Defence Minister, where she played a key role in national security and military reforms.

The interesting thing here is that she took her oath as the foreign minister by placing her hand on the Holi Bhagavad-Gita book.

Her new role as Foreign Minister comes at a crucial time, as Canada navigates complex international relations and seeks to strengthen diplomatic ties globally. Anand’s appointment has been welcomed by many, highlighting Canada’s inclusive political landscape and growing recognition of talent from diverse backgrounds.

She is known for her strong leadership, integrity, and commitment to public service. With this new role, Anand becomes one of the most prominent figures in Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s cabinet. Her elevation is seen as a step forward for women and minorities in global politics, especially those with Indian heritage.
