New Delhi, Sept 25 (KNN) Ahead of leaving for the United States this evening, Prime Minister Narendra Modi today said that he sees US as a vital partner for India’s development, drawing especially on the rich possibilities of partnership in education, skills, research, technology and innovation.
“I am visiting the United States from 26 to 30 September 2014. I will attend the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) in New York and, thereafter, visit Washington DC on 29-30 September 2014 for a bilateral summit with US President Barack Obama,” Modi said, as per a Prime Minister's Office release.
“I will also meet the United Nations Secretary General Ban Ki Moon and leaders from other countries on the margins of the UNGA,” he said.
Modi further said, “The New York leg of my visit will also cover important elements of our bilateral relations with the United States. I look forward to meeting business leaders to invite them to participate more actively in India`s economic growth and transformation. This is a message that I will also convey to the U.S. business community in Washington DC.
On his meeting with the US President Barack Obama, Modi said, “I look forward to meeting President Obama over two days in Washington DC. This will be my first meeting with him. His life`s journey is a remarkable testimony to the rights and opportunities that democracies provide, and an inspiration for people around the world.”
Shared values, convergent interests and complementary strengths provide the foundation for natural partnership between the world`s oldest and largest democracies.
“I see the United States as a vital partner for our national development, drawing especially on the rich possibilities of partnership in education, skills, research, technology and innovation – and, above all, a shared commitment to human values. Working together, and with others, we can bridge the many divisions of our times and contribute to building a more peaceful, stable, secure, sustainable and prosperous world,” he said.
“I will discuss with President Obama how we can use the strength of all that we share and all that we have built so far to take our relationship to a new level in the interest of our two countries and the cause of this world. I am confident that the visit will mark the start of a new chapter in our strategic partnership,” Modi added. (KNN/SD)
