Vienna: Prime Minister Narendra Modi arrived in Austria early today after concluding his two-day visit to Russia.
Austrian artists welcomed him at the Ritz-Carlton Hotel in Vienna by singing “Vande Mataram.” This historic visit marks the first time an Indian Prime Minister has visited Austria in 41 years, with the last visit by a PM being made by Indira Gandhi in 1983.
During his visit, PM Modi is looking forward to engaging in various diplomatic discussions, meeting with Austrian Chancellor Karl Nehammer, addressing the Indian community in Austria, and engaging with business leaders from both countries.
Before he arrived in Austria, PM Modi emphasized the shared values of democracy, freedom, and the rule of law that will strengthen the partnership between the two nations.
