Indian PM Modi meeting queen on 2nd day of UK visit

Nepalis living in London had gathered near 10 Downing Street where Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi met his British counterpart David Cameron.

“India is a nation filled with strong youth”.

The Prime Minister called the NRIs as the true ambassadors of India.

The “unique” large-scale blanket made up of more than 2,500 little squares of crochet created by Indian women across the United Kingdom in their own individual styles was undertaken by the Indian Ladies in United Kingdom (ILU) group, that claims to have nearly 5,000 Indian women, mostly 1st generation immigrants from India, as members.

On 14 November, when Modi concludes his, the Prime Minister would inaugurate Dr. Ambedkar Memorial in London and a statue of Basaweshwara, poet and social reformer.

But if my Bharat Mata is clean and swacch, won’t we all be proud and happy? This image of a relationship cemented by cricket, Shakespeare, Madame Tussauds and a joint liking for a good curry is not entirely false, but it is misleading.

He said that India-UK ties are about people and about prosperity.

Not bad, considering Mr Modi was barred from visiting Britain until 2012 for failing to stop anti-Muslim riots, in which hundreds died, when he was chief minister of Gujarat in 2002.

Mr Modi’s visit to Britain has seen the unveiling of £9 billion of commercial deals between the two countries. The people who listen to him don’t have Indian votes, but there are votes in them for Mr Modi all the same.

“As a community we saw what happened when he went to America and, you know, America may be bigger but Britain can do it better”, said Janhavi Dadarkar, a director of the Europe India Forum non-for-profit organisation which helped set up the event.

Hundreds of protestors held placards and chanted slogans as thousands of people poured into Wembley Stadium to welcome controversial Indian prime minister Narendra Modi this afternoon. Modi got a warm welcome from British PM David Cameron, their parleys continuing on Friday, after which PM Modi had lunch with the Queen before his address to an expected 60,000-strong crowd at Wembley.

I can say that after my experience during the last 18 months. In that time a lot of water has gone down the Thames. Asked if the personal equation between the PMs and the emphasis on the diaspora had sidelined more substantive bilateral issues, Ms. Patel emphatically denied it, making it clear that the new economic partnership between the two countries can not happen “overnight”.

“I would like to assure you that the dreams you have dreamt – and the dreams every Indian has dreamt – India is capable of fulfilling these dreams”.

“There is no reason for India to remain a poor country”.
