PM Modi US Visit: PM Modi flew to the US at President Biden's invitation and is scheduled to participate in the first in-person summit of Quad leaders.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who left for his three-day visit to the US on Wednesday, arrived at the Joint Base Andrews in Washington DC today. He was welcomed by a rousing crowd of Indian Americans, chanting his name, waving the Indian flag. Heavy rain in Washington since early morning did not diminish the enthusiasm of people who gathered to catch a glimpse of PM Modi.
"Grateful to the Indian community in Washington DC for the warm welcome. Our diaspora is our strength. It is commendable how the Indian diaspora has distinguished itself across the world," PM Modi tweeted.
Upon arrival, PM Modi was received by senior officials of US President Joe Biden's administration and India's Ambassador to the US Taranjit Singh Sandhu.
