PM Narendra Modi address Indian community at the event 'Modi and US' in New York

Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Sunday gave a new meaning to AI as he addressed the Indian community in New York. During the 'Modi and US' event in Long Island, PM Modi said, "For me, AI means American Indians. This is the spirit that is taking the India-US relations to a new height."

Members of the Indian community chanted 'Modi, Modi' as they welcomed PM Modi at the event. He began his address with "Bharat Mata ki Jai", and also said that the word "Namaste" is now multi-national. "Namaste has become global from local now," PM Modi said, as the Indian community cheered for him.

"You have connected India to America and America to India. Your skills, talent and committment know no bounds. Even though you have travelled overseas, but no sea is so deep that can distance you from India," he said in his address to the Indian community.

The Nassau Coliseum was abuzz ahead of the event as Indians holding 'Welcome Modi' posters in various languages gathered. Groups of artists also performed traditional Indian dance forms at the venue. More than 500 artists are set to showcase their talents as the event unfolds.

The Prime Minister arrived in New York earlier today after attending the Quad Leaders’ meeting in Delaware,



hosted by President Joe Biden on Saturday.

The Quad Leaders' Summit took place on Saturday in US President Biden's hometown, Wilmington, where several topics ranging from security cooperation to technology sharing were discussed. During the Summit, the Prime Minister stressed rules-based international order and respect for sovereignty, in a veiled reference to China.

Along with Prime Minister Modi, the summit was attended by Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese and Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida, with whom PM Modi also held one-on-one discussions.

He also addressed a Cancer Moonshot event, an initiative aimed at enhancing measures to combat cervical cancer, hosted by Biden on the sidelines of the Quad Summit.

On Monday, the Prime Minister will address the Summit of the Future at the United Nations General Assembly in New York.

PM Modi's other engagements include participating in a roundtable with CEOs of American firms working on cutting-edge technologies such as AI, quantum computing, and semiconductors.

Former US President Donald Trump announced that he would meet PM Modi. However, it has not been confirmed by either side.
