Diversified conglomerate Aditya Birla Group (ABG) on Sunday celebrated its 50 years of operations in Thailand.
The event was attended by Prime Minister Narendra Modi and several other dignitaries from the Thai and Indian government.

Currently, the group has catapulted to become one of the largest diversified enterprises in the Southeast Asian country with nine plants spanning diverse sectors such as textiles, carbon black and chemicals.
Addressing a gathering here, Modi said, "We are here in Thailand with whom India has a strong cultural linkage. And, we are marking 50 years of a leading Indian industrial business in Thailand. This reaffirms my belief that commerce and culture have inherent powers to unite."
