Soni Chowdhary said, “I am very excited that PM Modi is coming. He is one of the fearless and great leaders I have ever seen in my life. He is such a good orator that he captures the attention of everyone, especially the way he speaks, it motivates the youth, which was lacking in the former PMs, as the old generation was more attached to them. But now, even youths are also attached with PM Modi, so we are excited.”
Similarly, Amit Pandey and Rajesh Sharma also expressed their excitement for PM Modi’s visit as they prepared themselves for attending the “Modi & US: Progress Together” event, which is scheduled for September 22.
During his visit, PM Modi will take part in the fourth Quad Leaders’ Summit in Wilmington, Delaware, which is being hosted by US President Joe Biden on September 21.
Foreign Secretary Vikram Misri said on Thursday that the Quad event will provide PM Modi with the opportunity to thank both US President Biden, and Japanese PM Fumio Kishida for their leadership.
In a press briefing on PM Modi’s visit to New York, Misri said, “…This is also going to be kind of a farewell event in so far as the Quad is concerned for President Biden and Prime Minister Kishida of Japan, and therefore, the Quad event provides the Prime Minister with an opportunity to thank both leaders for their leadership in giving momentum and salience to the Quad partnership.”
Quad is a diplomatic partnership between four countries–Australia, India, Japan, and the United States. (ANI)
