Prime Minister Narendra Modi has begun his visit to Seychelles, where he is scheduled to meet Jonathan, a 194-year-old giant tortoise recognized as the world's oldest living land animal. Born in 1832, Jonathan resides in the Seychelles National Botanical Gardens. PM Modi's visit coincides with the 50th anniversary of diplomatic relations between India and Seychelles. He will attend the Seychelles National Day as the Guest of Honour, participate in a tree-planting ceremony, and hold strategic discussions with local leaders. Despite minor age-related health issues like cataracts, Jonathan remains active and is a major attraction. https://argusnews.in/national/pm-modi-seychelles-visit-jonathan-oldest-tortoise #creator program
