The Indian government has thanked the New York District Attorney office for its excellent support in returning over 150 antiquities to the country and appreciated its role to enhance the Indo US people-to-people links and cultural understanding through restitution of the precious artifacts. Prime Minister Narendra Modi brought back 157 artifacts and antiquities, which were handed over to India by the US during his visit, with both he and President Joe Biden expressing commitment to strengthening efforts to combat theft, illicit trade, and trafficking of cultural objects. While nearly half of the artifacts are cultural, the other half consists of figurines related to Hinduism, Buddhism, and Jainism, an official statement said on Saturday. Modi conveyed his deep appreciation for the repatriation of antiquities to India by the United States.
