He said India's freedom struggle was not just about getting independence from British rule but a global anti-colonial movement and these principles should shape up our foreign policy.
Paying glowing tributes to Palkhivala, Modi said the late lawyer as India's ambassador to the US was able to generate respect for India.
Modi said that after independence, the first task for the rulers should have been to collect the threads and build a harmonious neighbourhood. But that did not happen and the country lost more than 60 years.
