India will hold an exposition of some of the relics of Lord Buddha, which are in its possession, in Thailand from February 22 to March 18.
The relics (20 bone fragments) have been preserved at the National Museum here. At first the relics would be kept at the National Museum, Bangkok, and would then be exhibited at five different venues across Thailand, a senior Union Culture Ministry official said.
The relics of Lord Buddha along with the relics of two of his disciples, preserved in Madhya Pradesh’s Sanchi are being sent on the request of the Thai government, a senior official said.
