External Affairs Minister Dr S Jaishankar said, "It is always a good feeling to come to Kashi, particularly during the Kashi Tamil Sangamam. I came last year also. This time, I brought 45 diplomats, mostly ambassadors, because I wanted them to understand the importance of Kashi Tamil Sangamam. I wanted them to also appreciate how important Kashi is for the entire country and why we all regard it as the cultural epicentre.
